$2900 for me.

I work for Uncle Sam though and if anything have saved a shite ton of money because I've been working long hours and the bars and restaurants are closed.

Donating mine to a life long friend who owns a local pub and has quit paying his lease so he can try and pay his employees 70% of what he normally pays them.

Hope all the other people living large on the government dime follow suit.

Sounds like you are terrible with finances and live outside your means.

Mortgage $2,500
Tuition for 3 $1,800.00
2 car notes $1,000.00 combined
Electricity $250.00 - $300 per month
Water 80.00
Cox communications $220.0@
Car insurance $625 for both of us
AT&T cell phones $220.00 for both of us


Holy shite.

2 car notes = $1,000? Hmmmmm...I've bought 4 cars in my adult life and I've never had a car note above $400. You have 2 that total $1,000?

Cox communications -- cut the cord, man.

Car insurance -- WOW. 2 adults in my household and we pay $140/month for car insurance. Here in BR.

$730 Would have been $0 if I had already filed in 2019. Just purchased a new Garmin Echomap 73SV UHD for $640 (hopefully will be here tomorrow) so that's good news I guess. Bad news, I don't expect I will be able to get on the lake until May with so much ice.

If your mortgage is $2500, and you have 2 car notes, you either make plenty or live beyond your means anyway.

And what's worse is you pay $2500 a month to live in BR. I wouldn't live there for free.

So you and your husband should take the $500 for each of your kids and open an IRA account.

Some of y’all are so hood and shortsighted. My 19 year old has $91K already in his Roth IRA. He is set.

Damn - for me, tuition for 1 in High School is $14,000 /yr. or $1,400 per month since they allow 10 monthly payments. That’s cheap for 3

$0 is what I will get.

Even though my company just cut my pay by 20% and it's probably 50/50 that I'm furloughed for a couple of months or more soon.


They aren't going to look at your current pay? Just whatever you had when you filed your taxes?

Are you confused/curious about how someone could have two cars that each cost an extra $100/month more than the most expensive care you've ever bought in your extensive adult car buying experience?

I am just under the 150K by a counts hair. Pardon my crassness.

Putting mind into the house. Need to update the master bath. Cheap way to add a great deal of value to the home. People pay a lot for updated bathrooms and mine is straight builder basic from 2002. Last thing in the whole house that needs a facelift. Don’t know why it was left out of the last update by the previous folks.
