[quote=Anonymous]Let me say first I totally oppose the shutdown and think the Reublicans driving it are insane and idiotic. Having said that...I have a lot of friends who are gs 13 to 15, single with no kids, who are saying they cannot afford to miss a paycheck. Wtf? Really? Do people who get paid over 100 thou and have no dependents really have no emergency savings? Am I the only one thinking when people say this, "um, take this as a sign you should reconstruct your budget so you are saving more?" FYI, I am a gs 13, no kids, and I have a three month emergency fund. One of the friends who was stressing about the shutdown last night spent sixty bucks on dinner, ordered two drinks, went to a movie after, etc. I nodded sympathetically but really wanted to say, "so drink water, order a ten dollar appetizer, and go home and watch TV."[/quote]
