With a roommate, a paid off used car, and a not extravagant lifestyle in a smaller city/town, it's not impossible. It ain't as easy as it was ~8 years ago when I was doing that though

That’s not living if you’re making 200k a year. A roommate? Seriously?
Maybe this is an American thing? I lived with roommates until mid-thirties, was pretty normal in London.
Have you never lived in the SF bay area? I had multiple friends colleagues who lived with housemates while making six figures in software jobs. It's very normal.
