A Hundred Big Ones? Fuggedaboutit!

Eh what's up doc? Seems like everyone's chasing the almighty dollar like I chase Elmer Fudd! This Bankrate survey says nearly half of all you humans need a hundred grand a year just to feel like you're not about to lose your shirt. And a quarter of you want *one fifty*? Mother of pearl that's a lot of carrots! Back in my day a rabbit could live large on a few heads of lettuce and the occasional farmer's garden raid. Now you tell me you need more than the median household income of 80,000 clams?

Financial Sweet Spot? Sounds Sticky!

This Sarah Foster dame from Bankrate says the "financial sweet spot" means you can pay the bills *and* go out for fancy grub? What is this fine dining? I prefer my carrots fresh from the patch thank you very much. But seriously even I can see that inflation and whatnot have made things tougher than a two dollar steak. It's enough to make a rabbit pull his fur out...if I had any that is!

Stagnant Wages? Sounds Like a Slow Day in the Desert!

This Carolyn McClanahan broad says wages are stuck in the mud while prices keep climbing? That's a perfect formula for people feeling like they're about to be turned into hasenpfeffer! And all this political hullabaloo isn't helping either. 'Of course you realize this means war!'...on your wallets that is!

Kids Cars and Mortgages Oh My!

On top of everything else you got kid costs going through the roof car loans that'll bite ya sky high mortgage rates rents that'll make your ears droop and those student loans coming back for revenge! It's a regular perfect storm of financial disaster! I'm starting to think building a rabbit hole is cheaper than all this nonsense.

Golden Age? More Like Fool's Gold!

Apparently this whole "American Dream" thing—house car single income—is a thing of the past. So what I'm I supposed to do now? Can't I just go back to simpler times where all I had to worry about was outsmarting Elmer and Daffy? Eh I guess times change. But if you ask me it all started going downhill when they stopped making Acme products reliable.

Save More Spend Less...Easy Peasy Right?

The experts say you gotta save more than you spend and have a fancy portfolio. Sounds simple enough right? But let's be honest when you're barely making enough to cover the essentials saving can feel like trying to pull a rabbit out of a hat...when there's no rabbit *or* hat! But hey never say die folks! Just keep hopping along and maybe we'll all find a way to outsmart this financial Elmer Fudd!
