Biting The Bullet ... Cutting Expenses ...

I HOPE YOU WILL PARTICIPATE, AND DO YOUR PART !

The  President ordered the cabinet to cut a whopping $100 million from the $3.5 trillion federal budget!
I'm so impressed by this  sacrifice that I have decided to do the same thing with my personal budget.  I spend about $2000 a month on groceries, household expenses, medicine, utilities, etc, but it's time to get out the budget cutting ax, go line by line through my expenses, and cut back!
I'm going  to cut my spending at exactly the same ratio -1/35,000 of my total budget. After doing the math, it looks like instead of spending $2000 a month; I'm going to have to cut that number by six cents!

Yes, I'm going to have to get by with  $1999.94, but that's what sacrifice is all about. I'll just have to do  without some things, that are, frankly, luxuries. (Did the pres actually  think no one would do the math?)
