Not any more, but at one time, whatever income I saw was just fleeting glances as it went out lots quicker than it came in LOL.
But I got a few lucky breaks, and some good advice, and managed to start living within my means. Did away with all the credit cards, bought a piece of dirt, now own it free and clear.
I just wish I had gotten smarter quicker.

LOL God that's so true. My income and I are actually filing for divorce soon as we've grown so far apart.

Yes , now that you mention it , at least lately it seems that way.
I either need a 2nd job to keep up or have to cut way back on
something.

No but I am what my aunt calls housepoor. i.e., I am a homeowner but can't afford much else. Wish I had bought a house when I was 18, not that anyone would've sold me one then, LOL
