Is 74k/yr a good compensation for 24 year old?

Depends, which month did you turn 24?

It's acceptable.

If you live in a flyover/non-coast city: yes that’s pretty good.
Otherwise you are a poorfag.

it sounds quite huge from an european pov. i guess there are drawbacks like health insurance cost or others ? i mean surely earning around 7k$ a month seems comfortable

you are right it's more around 6,1k/month. But i mean it's still a lot. in France you are considered rich when you earn +3100€ per month. What are the hidden fees about US salaries or life ?

It's all relative, I'm 25 and make less than half that before taxes

>>49871201
It's not 6.1k/month. You're forgetting he has to tip his employers.

There is no compensation which makes up for being a wagie sorry.

I'll probably get a couple thousand from my tax refund though, right.
