Sure, I was saying you can live on a third of a paycheck or you can live on 150% of a paycheck. One gives you quite a bit more freedom than the other (numbers arbitrary but you hopefully get the idea)

People say you can live on 1/3 of a paycheck but is that really true? No matter how clever I got with my cuts, I could never trim that much without losing either the payment information or signature line.

Depends a lot on the size pf the paycheck. You can live on half a paycheck if you earn at least 6 figures and don’t have student loans. Most people i know who make 6 figures wouldn’t want to live that lifestyle though.

In most cases would be harder when making 6 figures, though that probably depends on the font size. I don't see how student loans play into this.

Like I said, actual numbers vary I was just illustrating with an arbitrary 1/3 and 150%. Generally speaking, tend towards 0 rather than infinity.

Don’t start at the edges, start at the center

An xacto knife could have a huge impact on my budget.
