Gasoline : We currently budget $75 a week for gasoline which translates to a tank of gas for our van. With gas prices falling significantly recently, we haven’t been using the full amount. Entertainment: This is the easiest budget item to cut since it’s not a necessity.

They drove the 200 mile trip on holidays and birthdays to celebrate with us. They also took the kids (one at a time) each year and entertained them by going to tourist attractions in their area.

Use the below as a guideline only. If Daddy’s late or Mommy’s out of town on business – talk about what your spouse does, why they have to be late or out of town once in a while and how family uses their salary.

Most of us did not have air conditioned homes. People opened their windows and used attic fans or sat in metal lawn chairs outside to cool off. Most of us did not have clothes dryers, we dried the clothes on a line outside. Some of us did not have central heat. They used aprons over them when they cooked.

We have a one story ranch home of around 2300 square feet located on 6 acres within 4 miles of stores, medical care, entertainment, gasoline stations and more. Although our home is pretty age friendly already, we are now thinking about changes we should make to allow us to stay during the rough times of old age ahead.
