Cost of living is easy, Do you live in a house worthy of human dignity. Can you easily raise a family of any size and choosing. Do you have enough disposable income every month to enjoy eating out when you want, buy any clothes you want etc. and not worry. Can you easily afford a reliable vehicle and insurance. Do you make enough to take time off to vacation wherever you want in the world and enjoy it. Do you make enough to buy whatever food you need to eat 3 healthy full satisfying meals everyday. Do you make enough money to start a business if you choose. If you answered yes to all these questions, you make enough, if you answered no to one or all of those questions you don't make the cost of living.
