[QUOTE="OKRuss, post: 3636890, member: 41777"] And....why isn't moving a consideration/alternative? If you just scrape by in say Dallas, then move to a suburb area or a cheaper city. Sometimes a job/career won't afford that luxury of moving but why stay somewhere when you aren't getting ahead? I lived in Denver a while. WAY too expensive. Yes, I could afford it but left little for vacations and such so most were camping trips. Tell one of the millennials you bought your cars with cash and don't have to have payments if you don't want to and watch their jaws drop! Like Dennis alluded to - this isn't rocket science to live within your means. How much do you make? How much do you spend? If the second is bigger than the first, you got problems. What happened to saving money to buy something you really want? It used to be a Hot Wheels and now it's a real one. Just a couple more zeroes at the end! [/QUOTE]
