Just for interests sake....

Should be interesting to see who the biggest nut is.

But it should probably be considered as disposable income. Figure an average for the past couple of years or so. "Chickens don't clap."

Any spare money is thrown at existing debt (which is now only 1 car loan and 1 school loan, thank goodness) and baby necessities. I'm even packing dinner leftovers for lunch 4 days out of 5 (which ain't so bad 'cuz I cook good)!

After all of that, then comes electronic toys. It doesn't matter how much you make, you can always outspend it.
