[QUOTE="SKATA, post: 4285309, member: 53653"] We have no debt. 1700 sq ft house and cars paid off. But . . . normal monthly can be from $1800 to $5000. The fluctuation is caused by Medicare part D/G insurance, property taxes, house insur, car insur, air conditioner repair, termite spray, new tires, etc. Our monthly income doesn't cover. So we have to dip into savings. We cannot take BIG vacations like the old days. 2-3 day trips to Arkansas once a year. If we eat out, then once every other week and it could be around $40. Being in the food business for nearly 60 years, I do all the shopping because I know what's in the can or box. I can say we are comfortable now but am concern 5 to 10 years down the road. [/QUOTE]
