Do you struggle to make ends meet and pay your bills each month or are you living in the lap of luxury?

    I live paycheck to paycheck. If my parents weren't paying for my daughter's daycare, I'd be homeless.

    I don't struggle. I save 25% of my gross pay every year and have enough saved that I could take the next six years off without a problem (and without touching my retirement savings). But I wouldn't say I live in the lap of luxury because I don't choose to buy luxurious things. I would say that I'm fortunate that I can buy pretty much anything I want (but my wants are relatively inexpensive).

    Luxury whats that???!!!!! I live paycheck to paycheck sometimes getting a payday advance (not wise I know) but I tend to pay bills first and myself later (much later) LOL. I am trying to rebuild my credit too from my early teens. Anyway that's how I live.

    I think if I was a better budgeter we wouldn't struggle as much. However, I tend to want to pay my debts down quickly and thus, don't have as much as I would like at the end of the month.

    There is a lot of ground between the two. I am currently clawing my way out of debt. Once I'm done, I can take the money currently going to payments and have a life.
