    What is “too much effort” to others is definitely not the same as “too much effort” to you.

    Are you above the median income for your age group? If so then your not too much effort could easily be way too much effort for more than half the people in your age group.

      Checked the stats and I did slightly less than median income of my age group then (~2500€/month vs a median of 2966€/month). And honestly my effort was to home cook as much as I could and not spend money on things I didn’t need. The unironic boomer-tips I know, but it worked.

      Maybe my distaste for avocado toast was enough in the end.
