Well, many US landlords do a 1/3 rent rule. And I’m hearing about some doing 1/2 rent rule. So, I guess not. But they are looking to consume as much of your income as possible.
I’ll tell them to their face. That isn’t rich. I’m not arguing the money doesn’t make a difference, I’m arguing that isn’t rich. Terminology matters, and someone making 50k is in the same classification as someone making 150k from the perspective of the actually rich. Being rich means having wealth.

News alert: 2000 isn’t “rich.”
It is to most if you’re oberying the 1/4 rent rule. That means you’re making close to $100k/year, and that’s a lot for a lot of people.
Nobody observes the 1/4 rule do they lol

Yeah that ain’t rich.
Tell that to people who have a combined household income of $50k-$75k. Big difference.
