It wasn't supposed to be best or worst cases, it was just supposed to show that living under your means do matter and that someone with a fraction of the disposable income of a high earner can still earn more in the long run by saving regularly, obviously a high salaried person with the same mindset will earn even more but that's beside the point. The point was that cash flow management do matter.

I could have made a case with a even higher earner living even more lavish, racking up credit card debt and payday loans, buying stuff on installment ending up even worse with debt interest eating up much of the cash flow, here I simply compared someone living under their means with a higher salaried person living at their means (never beyond).
