High Gas Prices - Do We Need an Extra Income Just to Drive?

Filed under: Ways to Save, General Rants — CleanedUpCredit @ 10:07 am

There was an article recently about how the high (and getting higher reportedly) gas prices are really impacting the poor and the middle income working class the hardest. To the wealth and rich, these astronomical gas prices may be a drop in the bucket, but to people who live paycheck to paycheck, and do not even have a savings to speak of, this is hitting them very hard in the wallet.

Many have even resorted to picking up small jobs on the side as extra income, and some have resorted to riding motorcycle or crotch rockets to work just to save some bucks on gasoline. Not only that, some are quitting jobs that are too far away, just because the savings in gas prices more than makes up for itself for their particular situation.
