I think if you are single and netting $75K a year with normal expenses you are probably in good shape. But grossing $75K I don't think cuts it in all regions.
I would be more than happy to gross $75,000 a year being 20 y/o. Hell I live w/ my g/f in a decent 1 bdr apartment and together we gross like $28,000 a year. Plus I still have the dreaded car hobby sucking every extra penny dry.

**** I think I could live like a damn king on $75,000 a year and be plenty happy.

That being said $75,000 would be alot better an hour west in PA than it is here...
