I live moderately. I don't wear jewelries, watches. All my clothes are from Uniqlo. I don't have expensive toys. I have mediocre gaming PC, my old Macbook pro laptop, an iPhone X, and a small set of electric guitar + few pedals + small amp. I have a small 29 gal aquarium. I live in a cheap area in NYC (Queens, nearby Flushing). I have monthly karate membership, and give regularly to my local church.
But I started my career late. I had three different unrelated degrees (no student debt thankfully, I attended public schools), jumping to different fields in my career. I also need to be ready to support my all-single/divorced-female old family members (aunt, mom, grandma). I also will probably have kids in two years.

So a FAANG salary would be nice.
