Yikes 1lb of spaghetti for 5 people? Damn you people hate spaghetti?
So the meal is not 2 dollars its 7 dollars???
So based on inflation adjusted min wage of $10,500 that you support a year, that's $2,555 a year for dinner. Lets bundle in lunch and breakfast for another $2,555 shall we.
So now we are at half your inflation adjusted min wage just for meals.
Wonder how you are going to pay the rent while still managing to eat.
@15 its 31,200 which would leave you with 26k to pay the rent.
I guess if both parents work it would only be 25% of your pre tax income on food. would leave about 15k for rent and everything else.
Of course then who would watch the kids? Childcare would easily eat through that extra 10k income.
hmmm....
Starting to think inflation adjusted minimum wage is not realistic, do you get that feeling?
