[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I haven't read the pages of replies. But I agree with OP. I cannot understand why so many people live paycheck to paycheck. I don't have sympathy. I have disgust. Missing a few paychecks should not be an emergency. An inconvenience, yes. A headache, perhaps. But not an emergency. [/quote] A young Fed family living in FFX have a mortgage of $4k, daycare for 2 kids is $2k, car payments of $600 Fed makes $90k and spouse is a teacher making $60k. Their monthly income is net $10k. Their monthly fixed expenses is $9k. It sucks to live in the DMV is you don’t come from money or engage in the lobbying/law/defense tech milking Federal teat[/quote]
