"Scraping by" on $150,000 a year.

The girl whose parents raised her and her brother perfectly fine on two incomes that probably totaled about what I'm making right now at my crappy job HAS NO WORDS.

Bwah. They should try being a 14-year-old who suddenly lost her father and had a cancer-sick mother, the way I were. 150,000$ a year? In Israel, you're considered lucky if you make 75,000$ a year.

I'm not touching their situation, either to judge or make excuses, but rent and land are a lot cheaper in Isreal than America. Omaha is really cheap compared to most of the US, but it's still on a par costwise with living in Tel Aviv.
