TAXES, GAS, INSURANCE, LIC. PALTES - WORKING - SALARY

[Sandy S.]

HAVE YOU EVER FIGURED UP JUST HOW MUCH IT COSTS YOU A DAY TO PAY FOR YOUR GAS, TAXES, AND INSURANCE TO GO BACK AND FORTH TO WORK.

I GUESS IF YOU STILL COME OUT AHEAD IT IS WORTH IT. RIGHT NOW WITH GAS BEING ALMOST $3.00 A GALLON IT COSTS ME 3 HOURS OF WORK A DAY TO GET BACK AND FORTH. I GUESS AT LEAST I AM MAKING 5 HOURS OF PAY A DAY, BUT I AM ONLY PART TIME SO I WORK 3 DAYS A WEEK AND FILL IN FOR VACATIONS.

ANYBODY ELSE. STOP AND FIGURE HOW MANY HOURS IT TAKES TO PAY FOR YOUR S.S. TAXES, STATE, FEDERAL, AND LOCAL AND YOUR GAS AND INSURANCE AND LICENSE PLATES FOR YOUR VEHICLE. IT IS GETTING RIDUCULOUS.

well - the alternative for me is to be homeless and starving and without family.

So it's definitely worth it.

Sandy i just read an article not long ago talking about this issue. It said a lot of people especially married couples actually cost themselves money by having both people work outside the home. You also have to factor in eating out more because everyones too tired to cook, clothes etc. With gas at an all time high its getting really scarey
