There is also a tie down keeping the back corners of the bed from falling off. There may be some "creative wiring" within the truck too but I won't get into that.

Alot. 7 books, 6 months. And they're not small books, either. Then, after you pass their tests, you have to go pass Microsoft'* test to be certified. The school doesn't certify ya, Microsoft does. There'* a place here that does the online tests, and they watch ya. Can't cheat...

I'll break 60 this year. Not sure by how much. Best year was 72. I changed shifts and lost some pay.
Between the taxes, child support, and house, there'* not much left.

I really can't imagine how anyone with a family and teenage kids can afford to live on any less these days. There'* never any left over at the end of the month. Too many damn expenses !!!
But there is always money for the cars....

Here I was getting frustrated about how much everyone makes, but I always forget about location. After living in MANY different places, I have found that location is 60% of what you make. For example; what I make in South Dakota would be considered poverty level by California standards. But, here I bought a 2300 sq. ft house on 14 acres, drive a Park Avenue Ultra, a '95 Z28 and have 2 beaters to drive to work. So all in all we are doing okay, and I only make about 27K and my wife makes about 25K a year.
