[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly op, you ,ake a lot of money. Tithing shouldn't be that huge of a burden, imo. You need to talk to a planner, or even just spend some time reading/listening to dave ramsey or suze orman. Get rid of at least one car, get a klunker or take metro, whatever. Get cheaper housing. There are ways you can downsize your budget and things like food are negotiable. Negotiate exactly what you buy...avoid prepackaged processed stuff to save money. Consider an organic delivery service to keep you out of the store and to bring you fresh healthy foods. Downsize you cell plan to something cheaper...look into virgin mobile or if you seldom use the phone get some cheap throw away phone. Get rid of cable and use netflux or hulu for less than $10/mo. Call around for insurance quotes to see if you can lower that cost. [b]But i think you can probably tithe and still make it[/b]. And rememver malachi 3:10. If you pay it, God will help you.[/quote]

OP here.  Malachi 3 is not directed at the common person, but the priests of Israel and sons of Levi.  Plus, it is OT law.  I have taken a Dave Ramsey course, we have only one car, metro is inaccessible, can't afford to move (we own).  No cable.  Life insurance is $65/month, through a carrier recommended by Dave Ramsey, which is pretty reasonable.  We don't buy a lot of pre-packaged, but also don't buy much organic.  We can make it, just can't get ahead.[/quote]
