[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As immigrants and somewhat informed people, we had realized that USA cannot sustain being the land of plenty for all decades ago. These things were being discussed even then.   So over the years, we had lived as if the economy was bad and we prepared for the future -

- Cooked healthy meals at home.  Good for wallet. Good for health.  
- Bought a nice, large home at the bottom of the market in an average but convenient neighborhood.  Have a great mortgage rate too. 
- Send kids to public schools, and public in-state universities for in-demand STEM degrees.  They are in good jobs and even with AI, they should be employable for next 15-20 years. 
- Extensive solar panels and EVs. We have not had electric bills for years now. In fact, Pepco sends us $5 or $7 dollars sometimes.  
- Bought Toyotas mainly and very less repair and maintenance. 
- Make our own coffee. 
- We continue to eat organic foods. 
- Do all spa treatments (except my haircut) at home. [/quote]

These things are all obvious.[/b] I’m already doing most of this (except solar panels). Like a PP said, these are just common sense. There are just a lot of unavoidable expenses.[/quote]
