[QUOTE="crazymama30, post: 197654, member: 3184"] Gas and food are horrible. I don't have investments other than my retirement at work, but I am trying to sell my house. I have to, we can no longer afford to live there and get treatment for everyone. After insurance, my portion of the medication costs is 300$ to 400$ dollars a month. Just depends on what antibiotics husband needs. He is getting his tonsils out next month, which hopefully will cut down on prescription costs, but then I have a hospital and surgeon bill. My family does not eat it unless it is on sale. We used to have salmon once in awhile, but not lately. Pork loin is $1.99/lb this week, so we will have loin chops or whatever. What I do not get on sale I get at costco. I need new tires, and that will have to wait untill financial aid comes in. The only thing I kinda feel secure about is work. I work in a hospital. People will always get sick. It just happens. If I lost my job there for any reason, I would lose my health insurance but could find another job quickly. I already have a second job as a caregiver. Thank good ness I do not work in retail sales. My mom is in commission sales, and her income is definately droopy. [/QUOTE]
