Living on One Income

Quote From: pitterpat

how do you manage?

Living on one income is a huge challange. Not only are most homes two incomes but then there is 

no one to bounce things off of and share the responsibilitys of running a household. I tell my family 

that most household are working 80 hrs a week (40 for husband & 40 for the wife) . In order to sucessfully run my household I work 80+ house a week. This is increased by the fact I sell real estate and I'm on comission. Basically I take care of my real estate business first , second my 

personal finances. If family or friend don't understand , oh well. I have been managing this life 

style for 26 years and I'm in the top 5% of my field. The only thing I can't seem to manage is the stress, can anyone help me with that?

Living on 1 Income

I was slightly mislead by the topic because I thought it would deal with single people getting the most out of their paycheck, but a lot of the posts are folks with baggage (you know, kids and stuff) and how they are making it that way...my bad....definitely in the wrong demographic here, sorry...good luck ladies and gents.

I think based on experience, its hard to depend on just on income. i cant live with just one income...! surely we need to diversify and create alternative source. In other word multiple streams..!
