    Well you have a lot of expenses. Own the house but property taxes are high ($4800/year is pretty steep), you don't own the car (payments on that)...You have a kid. Doesn't take long to add up. Also as someone else said, the more you have the more you spend.

And a lot of guys who do what im doing get hurt, so im watching my back every second.
    Or don't watch your back and let the inevitable happen. Workman's comp.

    I know several people who have faked a back injury at work and gotten away with it......

    damn i feel bad for you. That's less than a months pay for me 8/12 months a year. I dont have a job that requires schooling either, sounds like you need to look outside the box and stop working for minimum wage.

    Cant knock it if your making it but dont make comments like **** the 1% when you can get a job at any cable/ satelite provider any call center or any corporate manufacturer and make 40,000 a year without any education or experience. But if you want to make 10k a year and say **** the 1% go ahead. I hope your in school furthering your education atleast.*

    Pony, the only thing on my mind is that at one time you had $200 not needed for the essentials of life.

    Seems impossible.
    This is my dads budget

    $800 rent
    $400 gas
    $ 200 cigs
    $600 food
    $ 90 cell
    $135 storage
    $ 35 electric
    $40 directv
    $20 internet
    $150 ish for a loan.

    I live at home and help him out a lot or the guy couldnt afford to live. And he makes triple the minimum wage. Sad state we live in.
