Glad we optimized our lives for low monthly cash burn while still living pretty luxuriously. And that was before all this shit started. Doing the smart thing before it’s needed is where it’s at. (And I am sure to many idiot leftists, that also counts as bullying.)

Even with eating out and all that, our required monthly outlay is only about $2,000, including the insanely high California property taxes.

Not bad. Not bad at all. We can earn that working at a convenience store if needed. Or I could return to daytrading again; pretty sure I can make $2k in a few hours most months.
