Why can’t you just use your credit card?



Cash can be seen and touched and kids get that, usually at an early age,

I am not comparing paychecks. I am comparing that there is extra money coming in each month.

But how is it extra? Would it be a fair statement for someone like ducky to say you have extra income because you have more paychecks than she does?

I have been to Sam's club several times. None of the stuff that is sold there is stuff I buy on a regular basis.

You implied that anyone who doesn't categorize their expenses like you do is someone who wouldn't have a clue how to figure out how much s/he could spend on a mortgage.

It is different as if your children were your current dh's, you would only be bringing in 2 paychecks.
