You're missing the point. Its not that $100K makes you the Monopoly Man lighting your cigars with Hundos and using 50s as coasters for your top-shelf cognac.
Look at the jobs.
Auto Mechanic (2) - ~$100K
Firefighter Level 1 - $99,200
Safety Officer - $101K
Interior Designer - $86K
Yeah, these add up and wind up costing a lot of money.
Each individual job isnt in itself outrageous or anything, but nor are these people paupers in dire need of critical pay increases.
