re: Here's a budget breakdown of a couple that makes $200,000 a year and yet is scraping by

Who the frick in here thinks a family of four spending a grand per month on food is high? What’s that like $8 per day per person?

And having $5700 per year extra is less than $500 per month. Not much buffer for emergencies.

I wouldn’t say these people are “scraping by” but they aren’t “rich” as many dems would have you believe.
