You'd also be surprised what you can feed and house your family on if you spend wisely.

Remember, "poor" does not equal cable TV, two mobile phones, two cars, a big screen, eating out 5+ times a week, buying the name brand at the store...

I don't disagree with you on this point. But feeding a husband, wife, 8 year old boy, 2 year old boy, 1 year old boy, and new born - due in September - costs quite a bit.

For some, earning say $300 a week, paying $250 in daycare, means you are able to "hold on" until the next paycheck.
