What in Silicon Valley salary is this statement?

Median weekly salary is 1159 according to BLS. That’s 7% of weekly salary vs 43% of weekly salary.

It's a few hundred bucks. If you're in the category of buying luxury pants, this is not much money. I really do not care how affordable it is for people making minimum wage, and am obviously not talking about their perspective.

HN is full of very wealthy people, I don’t think pointing this out is that useful. It’s pretty obvious who the target audience is there.
