No, I don't live in a luxurious life-style. We don't have the ability to do so.If I would be given a chance, I would still prefer to live as simple as I am in right now. We just spend our money for the bills and basic necessities in our daily lives. What matter is that we live happy and in peaceful way.

I wish I was and much of my money is going on bills. I suspect most people on this website aren't living in luxury though I could be wrong. Although I love the discussions the payments are a bonus and I think most people would be the same.

ha!ha!ha I wish I have that life my friend so I will not sit more than 14 hours or so in front of the computer just to earn $$$$ lol!!!
But I am very thankful that I have a good job like the one I have know as a freelance writer/researcher/moderator than compare to those who don't have work to make a decent living.
I can say we have a middle class family and working hard to save for the future.

Same thing goes for me, as my partner is now trying to help me to focus more into writing -maybe as an article writer. She is now helping me on how to do it, explaining things to make it easier for me to comprehend. But I think it's gonna take more time for me to really get hooked onto it, and I also pray that I'd do good in doing it.
I'm also in a middle-class family, and we try to our very best to earn on every possible opportunity that we could get. Of course, in legal manner!;)

I am definitely living a frugal life. Now all my money would go to the bills and stuff and FOOD. I don't let myself buy anything else but food. And I am saving on food too, trying to buy cheaper things or buy in bulk. I hope to be able to return back to normal life soon but I don't know how soon that would happen.

How i wish i am living in a luxurious life. No, i am living in a simple life, just earning enough for daily living and enough to save for my kid's education. I use to spend money based on the necessity and luxury sometimes. I love to visit beautiful tourist attraction in our country whenever i have the chance, I bring my kid and my mom. Whenever the planned tour is quite expensive i save money for it, because i truly enjoy the experience of having been in different places.

i spend a lot of money on going out and partying, clothes and decorations for the house. I work hard for my money so I want to play hard too!

luxury?Whoa.. I'm not Paris Hilton. I have a nice job that pays handsomely so at least I can fund myself for things I want. I spend mostly on cosmetics and clothing (foods arent included), and travel. Whenever I'm bored, I'll go for a vacation to somewhere far to have fun. It is expensive, but really worths it.

i live with a very simple lifestyle. most of our earnings usually go to the bills and daily needs. if ever we get extra money, we just enjoy a simple lunch out in the mall and movie is already a threat for us.

Not much.I like gaming. We have 2 nintendo DS lite. the cartridges are pretty much expensive, i have 5. The cheapest is around 1,500. It is really fun, especially when you're waiting and doing nothing. I also spare for skin treatments, but i only have it once a month. I buy a lot of clothes. Sometimes even if it cannot fit my closet anymore, i still buy some especially if branded clothes are on sale.

Hmmmn. That's seem pretty normal, as I was also a gamer back then. As for my clothes, I give some of my used one's to those who really needs it.

Luxurious is...as luxurious does in my view. I feel that I have reached the point in life where I have the 'luxury' of living life on my own terms with no outside pressures to be or do anything other than what I choose. In terms of financial luxuries..great wealth..big boats, planes, million dollar stiletto shoes, and being enslaved by the fashion police. No my hubby and I do not live in that kind of luxury...nor do we want to.
Even if we won millions of dollars on a lottery...that kind of 'luxury' would not what we'd do with it.
We spend money on improving our quality of life and doing our best to give back to others when we can...whether it is money, time, support...travel, staying healthy and strong.
