If you all aren't tired of the subject, can you name some things you could give up or cut back if you lost your job, had a large unexpected bill, whatever. Most of us probably have some extra things we could do without or cut back if we absolutely had to. I'll start:

If you really need to know, there's a great NG -- misc.consumers.frugal-living -- and a great web site, www.stretcher.com

I think I gave up most of the stuff 20-some-odd years ago when I quit my BC (before children) job and plunged our income to 40% of what it had been, so I can't remember any more what I gave up.
