Have you heard the one about the homeschooling family that lives on less than $22K a year in an area that costs above 100% (116%) of the National CoL Index?
I haven't quite figured out why so many people still persist in perpetuating the myth that living on a single income and homeschooling on a dime aren't possible. I can only suppose these are people who can't imagine life without a daily trip to Starbucks and dinner out several times a week. The people who actually shop at malls (*shudder*) and think "Brand Name = Best". The people who really live by the "Keeping up with the Joneses" mentality.
That? Would not be us!
Welcome to our world. We cook from scratch. Buy from thrift stores. Find 95% of our homeschool materials for free. This is my blog and this is how we do it.
Attitude is Everything.
My husband sent me the link to a news article that was a few weeks old. It involved the divorce of a celebrity couple and how the husband is demanding $33,000 A MONTH in support for himself and their one child. Good grief!
As my husband says, could you imagine this guy's horror at trying to live on two-thirds of that for an entire year? LOL!Labels: general chatter
