Yeah bud and my point is they aren't saving. Theres things they need to be doing that they aren't that doesnt necessarily effect their month-to-month lives but will effect them in an emergency, or in retirement (lol)

    Which isn't really relevant to their original comment about basic necessities? So far it's like you haven't bothered to read any comments but just really wanted to say something. Got the number of people for my expenses comment wrong, completely missed the point of the main comment. 0/2.

    Its extremely relevant. You take away all you put toward savings and now you are at their level of income + expenses? No idea how you aren't seeing that. They then buy cheaper produce/food to compensate for the added family members and probably skip on all clothing/entertainment for the adults. You see it now Mr Krabs?
