I think we're suffering from a bit of power creep. We're expecting some world defining cheat/power/money etc in the titles but encountering someone who makes about 3 times what you make where you live can in fact be shocking. From the layout and the external view, it looks like a fairly modest 1K where they're living. And there may be a sexist aspect as well, as women in Japan (and pretty much everywhere else) make less than men for the same job. And she's not that much older than him. In the LN, she's 28 and he's 24. Of course he wouldn't know the exact age but I don't think she'd look her 30's when she's just in her late 20's, especially since she's in good health and takes care of her body. So, you come back tired as hell with no end in sight from your dead-end job to your modest little 1K and see this woman living next door in the same layout as your 1K who's not much older than you telling you that she makes 3-4 times what you make even as a woman, I think a little shock is warranted.
