This "dead horse" is almost battered unrecognizable.
Still kind of fun though.
No mortgage or other debts
Very small house in the boonies
Newest vehicle is 8 years old
No cable, no cell phone.
Lots of clothing, furnishings, appliances were
bought used or picked up for free.
Everything is self insured to some extent.
You gotta put it in perspective. A lot of stuff that most
US citizens consider a necessity in 2005 were not available even
to the wealthy 100 years ago, and are not available
to most of humanity today.
I have posted my $50 per day budget before. We could still do it easily.
An aside. Did any of you read the new AARP magazine I posted about? People are living on just their SS check
and not bitching about it. They are way below $50 per day, but they found a way to make it work.
