Have you heard of "taxes"?
Your comp could be 150k, but a large portion will go to taxes, rent, student loan, food, and other basic things. 90k seems highly unrealistic even if you live the most minimalistic lifestyle.
I mean taxes alone brings you down to 100k. So no, it is not feasible to save 90 or anywhere close to it. 50k seems "kind of" realistic if you have no loans.
