I am constantly amazed at how much my household spends per month. Just my basics that have to be paid every month approach (mortgage, utilities, cell, insurance, gas, food) about $3200. But then there is about another 1K that is spent that is hard to account for (ok not hard just not tracked carefully).
If my parents knew this they would probably think we were insane since their generation was so tight fisted. We certainly do not live in a McMansion just a 2400 sq ft house, but man everything (especially food) seems way more expensive that it used to be. I know most will say wages have not kept up with inflation.
Am I alone in being amazed by what it costs to live these days or maybe shocked is a better word?
