Right?!?
Not much money left after manicure/pedicure, botox, $350/month car payments, eating out at $10/meal 8 or 10 times a week, send out the laundry, etc., etc.
If they had to live the way we did (or, more so, our parents) they would not be able to cope, IMHO.
And don’t forget the daily $10 iced frappacino soy lattes from Starbucks
That daily mocho latte with a whisper of cinnamon and a blueberry wheat muffin at Starbucks is around $8-10. Multiply that by 5 days a week and there’s $50 to spend on a nice Saturday night date. Apparently, dumping a scoop of Folgers in a coffee maker at home is too much effort.
