Same.
Although some recent day trades I've made have allowed me to have more padding for the incoming depression.

Also that thumbnail is something.
You don't become the lowest wage major US city and the one with the most unaffordable housing (as a percent of income) in the US without doing some things terribly wrong.

Vegas is a hospitality city, and people there earn a living wage..
Yep, but as a percentage of income, NYC is somehow more affordable than Orlando.
Hell, in Miami - 4 hours away from Orlando within the same state - I earn triple what I would have earned in Orlando for the exact same job. While paying less than double in rent.

That is 100% true.
I've heard folks just a little down the economic ladder from me refer to a WDW trip as a "once in a lifetime vacation." It's crazy that middle class folks have to budget that way for WDW now. Crazy and prolly not good for The Mouse.

Vegas is #192 out of 302 in affordability. I guess it depends on the job you have just like all situations
I like data to back up opinion so...:

Housing and income data show cities with low housing affordability.

I've had professors in my classes when I was in school. Some one can easily tell that they would not last one week in the corporate business world so they teach..

The waiters and waitresses at WDW TS dining locations earn a living wage too. Vegas isn't swarming with glorified carnival ride operators.
Disney needs to be expanding the CP model, not eliminating it. No grown adult should be running a theme park ride for a "career" but people are desperate to work for Disney.

I will say, though, that we can't complain too much about customer service at WDW if they rely on people who make horrible life decisions to staff the place.

Fair play to you.
This is sad truth. You can do it, if you are going to live within tight means for .let people and likely to never be self sustainable. I also think performers often get paid too much. There may be a shift of that as well.

You're typically a good poster, but you love to insult the sh-- out of Cast Members any chance you get and like, maybe you... shouldn't? Especially right now? You just come off like a self-righteous prick.

As I said, we need more CPs and retirees. Fewer college graduates with student loan debt or mid-career people who quit their real jobs after a divorce and moved to their happy place for the sake of a blue pass and a 20% merch discount.
Just the facts , Jack.
