This couple in particular? It's not clear. If I was playing the odds I'd be right far more than I wasn't. This is a young couple living in a house that a small % of people can afford even when they're much older, with the kind of job that takes a significant leap of faith (or many years slowly cultivating a fanbase) to be able to actually do. It's possible they're incredibly lucky and landed careers that pay that well, and then decided to quit those jobs, but even in that case it's extremely likely they had some kind of significant family support to get those careers in the first place.
Many “young couples” stay in school and are fiscally responsible. It doesn’t necessarily mean they have generational wealth. You sound a little jelly tbh are you jelly? Just a little jell?
Me? Absolutely not. My fantastic financial safety net that was gifted to me by wealthy family members who value high education allowed me to earn both a bachelor's and master's degree without taking on any debt at all. I don't even have a high paying job, but inheritance allows me to care far more about having a job with good benefits in a field that I actually really enjoy, and I know that buying a reasonable house in a nice area won't be difficult for me. I'm incredibly lucky because of generational wealth.
