I make enough to pay all my bills, and then some. I even have a nice little bit of saving in case anything comes up (about $3000)
If I lost my job? That'd be gone within a few months. If my car died, things would suddenly get tight for a few months. If there was a serious illness or injury...I have enough to cover that sort of emergency but things would be tight.
On the flip side I do also know plenty of people that money currently IS tight and they still make massive frivolous purposes. So there's that, too.
