Salaries are also incredibly low in much of the US - I think a construction worker I saw on a programme last year earned $12,000. No health insurance and a hernia that needed a $100,000 operation.
Heres the mionimum wage details - most of the South east has no MW or it is lower than the federal rate of $7.25 or around £4.80-£5 (£825 per cal month) depending on the exchange rate.If you've have not made a mistake, you've made nothing0 -
I've read about this lady before. Have a look at her website:

Interesting reading. I suppose it depends on your mindset and all.I got there - I'm debt free and intend to stay that way. If I haven't got the cash, it doesn't get bought. It's as simple as that.0 -
We pay nearly £8k a year on rent...
Taking that out of our income were left with £11k a year...
Doesn't seem hugely impressive to me? Or am I just super skint?0 -
Well I have no mortgage as we downsized 18 years ago and I guess I live on about the same amount as that lady but then there is only me to feed and keep warm not a family of four so I think she is doing quite well, I live fairly comfortably on my income and want for little and can still save quite a bit when I put my mind to it I wouldn't want to try to raise a family on it though0
