American debt: Are you in deeper or ahead of the average?

[usedtobedemgurl]

42. We are ahead.

When the orange one came into office, we paid off our house. Our cars have been paid off. We pay off our credit cards at the end of each month. Our bills are our pets, heat and light and water. We don't even have food bills, because I mystery shop. I either do grocery stores or restaurants. It has been a month and a half since we ate anything but takeout. I just ate a lovely bacon egg and cheese biscuit, but I try to get great stuff for us. Over the last month and a half, we have had great stuff like chicken alfredo, hibachi steak, lots of Chinese and Mexican food and more. We have pizza and General Tso's chicken sitting in the fridge right now. The pizza is from a small hole in the wall. Tastes like it came from new York!

I am blessed in life and with my job. I have chronic pain, so it is a life saver to have someone cook and do the dishes. We use paper plates, as my hubby has cancer and I have 24/7 pain.

We are way ahead. We are lucky.
