3. Well
Edited on Thu Dec-14-06 08:26 PM by BayCityProgressive
My partner and I both make a little over $18 an hour each. We just bought a new home and the taxes, mortgage, and insurance come to $1,150 a month. I figure everything from tanning to haircuts to credit card bills into my budget and still have about $500 a month to do whatever I want with. I dont think the problem is the $18/hr. I think the problem is that too many people put themselves in too much credit card debt, drive gas guzzlers and most importantly, all the good jobs are being outsourced. We have no problem living on the $18 an hour though.

**also we have no children which is a BIG money relief.
