I am on a small pension (forced early retirement a few years ago) and any I don't think any of the tax breaks will help pensions. I am gratful I have that but it is so much less than the salary I lost. So I have really cut back on impulse buying and try not to use credit cards. I need to really cut back on eating out too. I drive a 10 year old car. We also have been luckier than a lot. I feel so bad for people losing their homes. It is so sad. The shelter where I work said they hav had such an increase in the number of people surrendering their pets due to losing homes, jobs etc. |
