No, there isn't. Please re-read my previous post.

Yeah, including people earn over $100k. It doesn't matter how much someone earns (or inherits) who is bad with money - they're going to blow it.

Blind leading the blind and this is why there has been systematic gaps in the whole system and guess what? Our cities and regions suffer due to it. Will impact the long term potential of them and the long term prosperity for many. For the majority which is not from a position of privilege.

If the United States, Canada, and I presume England and the rest of Western Europe (I make no claim to fully understanding immigration to Europe) are so terribly inept, why do millions of people continue to move to these countries from Planet Earth's distant corners?
I have never, in my life, heard any immigrant to the United States complain about the cost of living. Tons of people with no money are able to get to the U.S. (I once worked with a guy who rode a raft from Cuba) and make it work, yet native-born citizens from middle class and wealthy backgrounds spend their days and nights on Twitter and Reddit complaining about the "cost of living" and threatening to move to Portugal or Honduras or wherever.
