The Positions thread touched on a subject that has been on my mind
lately. All those monthly bills that come just for living a normal life
style.
I have posted mine below, this may not cover them all, I just recently
started compiling them.

Health insurance $7800.00
Car Insurance $1200.00
House Insurance $1621.00
Cable/Internet/Phone $1464.00
City Utilities, Water/sewer/garbage $1200.00
Electric $2055.00
Property Tax $1000.00
Cellphone $1500.00
Mastercard $10,500.00

TOTAL $28,340.00

The Mastercard probably doesn't belong, but it includes
gas for our vehicles driven daily.

You can see very near $30k just for the basics to keep the household
going. I haven't added food and ...

I'm in an area where I see a lot of people with the only reoccurring
bill they have is their cellphone. They don't have a home, car or
insurance to pay. But they have that cellphone, often a smartphone.


Your thoughts. Any additions to the list?

Some of these " bills " are not necessary. Cell Phone for one. Who in their right minds pays $1460.00 per MONTH for Cable, Internet, and Phone? Ours is $210.00 for all three. $7800.00 per MONTH for Health Insurance? Another bill you're being gouged for. $1621.00 per month for House Insurance? How many houses are you insuring, 10?
And to top it off, you state you are charging $10,500 per MONTH on your Mastercard? You are retarded. Even if that number represents the total you OWE on that Card, CUT IT UP, it's killing you and you don't know how to manage debt worth a ****.
