I made less than half that last year. Last time I made anywhere near that was more than a decade ago. Been livin' on the edge for quite a while now, but at least we still have a roof over our heads, along with subsidised food. Car is no longer reliable, though. Not only did it wipe out what money I had in repairs, but it's been giving me a few scares lately by giving me trouble starting.
Oh well. I'm doing an oil change in 3 weeks, and talking to my mechanic about it. Shoulda done it already, but finances dictated otherwise.
