    My household is only $92.650 below this figure which is $92.650. We live on less than $1000.00 per month or $12000.00 per year.

    We are retired. I'm bipolar. I'm under two or more doctors care. I'm also on Medicare and Medicaid. If I was not I really don't know how we would exist. (My meds cost about as much as what our income.)

    I figure we are just one of many that find themselves in a similar situation. My son pays the house payment and our daughter helps out from time to time. My Mom send us $50.00 per month to help us out. We are on Welfare food stamps. My wife is not able to work. I believe this is enough for anyone reading this to see the picture.
