Live a life you can afford on one income. It’s not impossible

So women shouldn’t aspire to anything other than motherhood and families should accept the bare minimum that a single income can afford 🤡

Literally not what I said. My wife doesn’t work and she doesn’t get “the bare minimum”.

Believe it or not, it IS possible to live on a single income. You just have to be intentional and not live above your means.

But yes, you do have to sacrifice things. My family has one car. We don’t take extravagant vacations. We rarely go to fancy meals.

You're forgetting the most important piece of that puzzle: being qualified for, living near, and getting a job that pays the whole family's budget - even if it's low. Have you taken a look at average incomes and costs of living in various parts of the country?

Listen, I’m not saying it’s easy. I’m saying it possible. There’s a difference.

Get creative. If I can do it (I'm partially retarded), then I'm sure you can figure it out. Just be persistent in your seeking of the way.

Oh I'm personally doing just fine. Thanks for the concern, though :cheers_lg:

While the kids are young? Absolutely. Accepting a sub part life style is just a lack of faith and creativity. However, at the same time, making sacrifices is a noble act.

We are a sigle income family. Bitcoin has allowed us to do this.
