Not defending Mike Johnson here, but there's supposed to be more to it than just the days in session. About 140 in session days, which allows other days to read and research what you're legislating on.

My family is comfortable, in a house with a mortgage and cars that run and a bit in the bank. We are not "paycheck to paycheck" in that a missed check will doom us. But loss of income for any longer than a month or two would be disaster. I think that's what this statistic also includes.
