your right Diana, everyone wants to live like the "Jones" next door.
I have one cc to pay off this month, hopefully!!! and i'm done with the cc. if we can't pay cash we don't need it.
i cut down on alot of things lately, food, clothes etc, i'm even dying my own hair now... not doing a good job the grays keep coming thru

but it's saving me alot of money... if we go out we go out on Sunday's buy one sandwich get one free he. he but there so good!!!
and we try to put so much away a month in our savings, "we all have rainy days" and hopefully if something breaks down we will have the money to fix it..
With everything happening right now, i hope the American people get there heads screwed on right, get themselves out of there debt they got into and start living within there means. If i can do it, on 1/2 my salary i know alot of people can do it....
