[QUOTE="Catatonic, post: 1059348, member: 7966"] Most UPS jobs do not pay enough to support an entire family. One person - yes. Family of 4 - marginal Unless one lives in a "bubble of happiness". :wink2: Of course, the real problem is people thinking they are entitled or deserve to live a life-style above their income. I know people who get by on less than $20,000 / year. They drive older (older being 15 or years) cars, they have a flip phone using Tracfone and/or do MajicJack VOIP, they get broadcast TV (no cable or satellite) or absolute basic package on cable/sat, no iPhones or iPads, a few use internet access from their neighbors wi-fi or go to McD's or the Library, They rarely eat-out, they use coupons at the grocery store, they don't have health insurance (Obamacare will hopefully help), they don't take vacation except to visit other relatives, [/QUOTE]
