Do you realize my bills every month come out to less than $800?
I mean...wtf?
I'm truly baffled. I live so comfortably it's ridiculous. And my next promotion is going to basically double my salary (and it will probably happen within the next 2 years since relocation to anywhere is not an issue).
I just don't understand.
Do you realize how much disposable income I have? I realize I am not rich, and that is not a lot of money for someone that has responsibilities, kids, or a family...
but I have NONE of that. None. I could live off of $18,000 if I needed to in Champaign. Probably less.
