How do we do that???
Savings
Education
Training
Owning assets
Living below our means
Networking
"Realize it is never too late to take control" - Zig Ziggler
Reading company financials
and
being prepared to move if needed.
You seem to disagree with me. I don't understand why.
I am going to ask my wife (much more liberal and compasionate than I) to read what we have written on this subject to see if I have not been clear. Perhaps you can have someone do the same - and we can come back compare notes.

Ace...do you know anyone living on the edge of poverty on the proceeds of a low paying job and perhaps AFDC support?
Savings - in place of putting food on the table or paying rent?
Education/training - either give up their low paying job or maybe night school (but then they would have to use their "savings" for additional child care)
Owning assets - the basic necessities come first
Living below our means - the only thing lower is homelessness
We can debate how they got to this point, but the fact is that there are millions of Americans facing this every day.
