Unfortunately too many folks live too far beyond their means. My department has most people making 85,000 to $130,000. I'm one of 15 that isn't living paycheck to paycheck. They talk strong now, until they gotta figure out that $2500 mortgage and $900 truck payment.
I know all to well about living beyond your means. When I first found Dave Ramsey on the radio, I scoffed at his plan. When I learned I could be debt free and a millionaire following his plan, I have been following it ever since. There's something liberating about having money in the bank without payments, and being able to tell your boss to go fuck himself without fear. Now I basically set the rules with my boss rather than the other way around.
I'm prepared to and wish others will.
