    In my first year I saved half of my upper-$30s pay. Upper-$30s was 2-3 times what I made in previous career. I borrowed a couch at my brother's apartment and brought my groceries with me and ate out of the truck 4-5 days a week.

    1100 in checking, 530 in savings. 13 months.
    Lots of family issues and stuff to take care of . Week to week. No money in any 401k after the banksters wiped my family and myself clean in late 07/ early 08.
    One secured cc with 1k limit.
    Emergency use only.
    2004 ford crown victoria. Starting to rot bad.
    5.5 years owned for 2k cash and put 80k miles on it with < 1500 in repairs. Only on a tow truck once in 5.5 years.
    No point to playing the money masters game. They really don't like me for that. Oh well.
    Fractional reserve banking is a bad game for all the sheep to be playing
