Just saw a thing on minimum wage last night.

$9.00 an hour=$18,000 for the year (full time working)

$25,000 is poverty level.

So even working full-time you are living $7,000 below poverty level.

I so remember when my mom an RN made $7.50 an hour and that seemed like sooooooo much money.

When you could work for a summer and pay for one year at a University!

Its becoming such a rat race and one that ties me quickly. I'm ready to get rid of everything and live up in the woods by a little creek and get back to enjoying life-not just surviving.
