Gabe Silver's Thoughts



     I thought Morgan and Alex were pretty good at budgeting. They were cooking for themselves which is waaaay cheaper than going out to eat. You see a lot of people going to McDonalds or Denny's because they think it's cheap but in the long run Alex and Morgan saved a lot more by just cooking with what they had at home. They were able to make it last too. I liked how Morgan was carpooling to work, that definitely was a lot more comfortable than the bus and saved time. I think Alex was complaining a lot though, she seems like she's been comfortable her entire life.

    The working poor are those who have a steady job, but make so little and have to give so much back they're basically living hand to mouth. Alex and Morgan experienced what it was like being in the working poor when they couldn't even get an injury checked out because they were worrying about money. That's the kind of fear I never want to experience, so I think for starters I am never having kids.
