Default Re: The poor in America - How do they live?

With a family of 6 on a salary of 32k, I am sure I would be considered "poor" though I don't feel like we are. We watch our money carefully and pay for everything in cash. The only debt we have is our house. Unlike the government, we have to keep a balanced budget here!
