[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is only 2 of us but I make just under 36k. Here is our breakdown. $920-rent (we live in a one bedroom. a two bedroom will cost 1050 in our apartment) $1035 - preschool/child care for 1 (I could go cheaper here) $300 - food $100 - utilities $ 98- car insurance and rental $ 200 - gas/parking/metro we have about 275 a month to spend on whatever comes up. my childs dad pays his health insurance and I dont have any. [/quote] Sounds like you're doing a great job with what you have. Kudos to you![/quote] Of course she gets kudos from the DCUM chorus because she isn't getting any public assistance. I wish you could get some assistance![/quote] I'm the "kudos" poster. I have nothing against public assistance! Just expressing my support for this woman. I posted earlier about my family situation - we make $63K, so we're not exactly the "typical" dcumers.[/quote]
