Live in Texas, work on the North Slope (Prudhoe Bay). There aren't many money 'staches here, but a fair amount of actual mustaches. I've been pleasantly surprised to find a few workers here besides myself who max out their 401K and strive to save more than 50% of their income. The norm is quite the opposite, which is unfortunate because with the rates generally very good (kind of makes up for -50° and lower winter temps)- I wish there were more people here with who were setting themselves up for financial freedom.
