Apparently, but as I mentioned, living paycheck to paycheck has less to do with income and more to do with personality. I always mention the coworker that made twice my income, lived in a single room apartment, and came to me on several occasions to make rent. Spenders (vs savers) are at risk across the income spectrum.
