[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I imagine people "get by" by doing a variety of things such as --Don't save or don't save as much for retirement --Rely on family for babysitting if both parents work --Don't save or don't save as much for college --Buy really old cars, like cars from the mid 2000s or earlier --Have one car, instead of two --Don't buy organic fruits and vegetables, or buy more frozen vegetables than fresh --Rent rather than buy, and live in spaces smaller than 2000 square feet, like 2 BR condos and other arrangements that people on this board find not "family friendly" with their kids sharing rooms --Don't go on vacations except maybe to visit family --Don't live in the most desirable school zone --Shop at thrift stores --Possibly don't have health insurance if not provided by their job --Constantly have a credit card balance --Don't go out to eat --Take advantage of sales for groceries and coupon[/quote] ...and eat a lot of crappy food from Costco[/quote]
