Depends on your definition of "ramen mode"... on my salary I can certainly afford more than ramen. (as previously mentioned, I live in an area cheaper than SF)

I'm not sure asking him the plan would help, though. I've been told the plan before only to have us pivot when that doesn't work and essentially reset the clock on the plan.

And yes, I realize how awful that sounds saying it out loud.
