My 3 vehicles combined are 30 years old. I live in a 25 year old house that eats up 35% of my monthly take home pay. I'm still flat broke. Having a family is bloody expensive these days, and things are getting worse ever month.

Sucks to work hard and barely be above the welfare class. At least I have savings....woeful as they are.

If you have young kids and lose your job it would be brutal. Much tougher to pick up and move.
