Is it my imagination or has family discretionary spending decreased. Do you find you family has no extra money after paying the bills? Even if your family income has increased over the past five years.

you purchased it guy. maximum individuals artwork for a "small agency" which in accordance to the authorities is less than 2 hundred people. If the agency is a few thing more desirable than a fruit stand, it isn't complicated to usher in as income more desirable than $250,000 a three hundred and sixty 5 days. After taxes many organizations herald less than $250,000 as income MARGIN. large large difference and also you'll get a headache attempting to describe the adaptation between a income and income Margin to a liberal.....they only do not get it. Why is it that liberals imagine anybody that makes over $250,000 a three hundred and sixty 5 days is someone only sitting on a sea coast, sipping margaritas and gazing the sea? do not they ever imagine of a pair that files mutually and owns a small agency that perchance workers 5 people? No, they don't.....all and sundry is wealthy that makes 3 figures or more desirable. those liberals have thoroughly offered into the "wealth envy" motto that Obama and the elitist Liberals carry forth day in and vacation. you recognize, like Obama reported: "do not bypass out and make loads of money, chase the tremendous matches..." Yeah, like he did precise?

Actually, I think you need to evaluate your bills. I did that not too long ago, and it's crazy some of the stuff we are paying for that we don't really need. HOW many cell phones do we need that can access the internet? How many channels on the TV do we really need (we only watch a few anyway). AND don't forget, that credit card we are trying to pay off from one too many xmas gifts and eating out.....not to mention YES, cost of living has gone up, but I think if you read economics, it's no more than any other time period really.

Yes, and I'm lucky to pay them on time. Its a vicious cycle. I work fill time 5 or 6 days a week and so does my husband.
We live very modist lives.We dont have fancy cars or house. we dont travel. My husband is educated and am airline pilot, I have work in the financial world for the past 10 years. So yes I know what you talking about.

Probably the biggest and stupidest mistake most people make is having kids they can't afford to take care of. These dumb breeders think it is such a noble deed to plop another kid out, they think that everyone will applaud them. If you are already poor or struggling, how does it make sense to add to your financial burden? If you are in a hole, stop digging.

It has become extremely expensive to live. I am married with only one child, my husband makes a decent living, and we still have little discretionary income. I have no idea how people go on week long vacations and still expect to retire some day. Scary!!!

it is due to cost of things going up
get with the program i remember paying 75 cents for a gal of gas
and 50 for a gal of milk
just because we get pay raises does not mean we are buying more
also when the kids were younger they didnt eat much now i have teens and omg they are eating machines

It depends on how you spend your money.
As I've know we'll not decrease our expenditure according to our purposes but it will not increase also if our income is getting bigger, because we just spend it according to our needs only.
Whatever......................
