    Are most people honestly living from paycheck to another? I find that quite difficult to believe. Then again I'm Finnish and not American, so that's probably why I can't see the big picture from a local pov. Just seems.. baffling.

    If you make 5k and spend 4k a month, while having 5k savings, that's not pay check to pay check. Close though, but what the term implies is 0 surplus, all that you make goes before next pay.
