Well today we found out they are taking $325 out of each paycheck to pay back his bonus he received. He gets paid $888 each check. He gets paid twice a month. So that leaves us with $524 for bills. Our rent is $395 so basically nothing else can get paid. I really do not understand the mlitary.How are we supposed to pay for bills and take care of a new baby with only 1 or 200 dollars each check? We struggle as it is with $888 a check. now he has to live on $200 dollars a check if that. Let me break down our bills for you:
Rent - $395 a month
Water - varies from $50 to $65 a month
Gas - $50
Electric - Varies from $50 - $75
Dish network - $50
Internet and phone - varies from $45 to $75
Food - Varies ..most we ever spent on food shopping was $160 when we first moved down here because we needed everything basically..least we ever spent was $65...
and then baby items like diapers, wipes and whatever else...I have WIC so formula is covered thank god...
How the hell is this all getting paid now? Since we got down here it's been nothing but a big mess. This place and the military sucks!!!
UPDATE: He is getting the loan for $1200 so we can pay everything and get food and whatever else we need. He is trying to cut down his payments for his bonus to $50 a check instead of $350. Hopefully he can get it cut down.
