Your Problems
XV/: I can't tell you what it
woulld coat a. five-member family per
year. Including clothes, food, tele
phone bill, coni, electric light, water,
etc. I can give you tome idea per
haps, but the cost depends upon the
scale of the family life, the sges of
its members, their location, etc.
Expenses are higher in a city than
Srr smaller places. Vary small chil
dren can lie fed, clothed and schooled
for much less than older ones. Some
families have good health and save
considerable evpensp that way. Home
families enjoy outdoor and Inexpcn
slve recreation: others banker only
for costly dinners and theater par
ties.
What Is the income of this family?
It's ralher a good idea to plan to live
within the Income, you know, and
save a little. Every family in the
world, unless living from hand to
mouth, ought to definitely save some
thing.
Rent in Omaha would run from $50
to $75 a month: food for a family of
live, from $15 to $20 a week; fuel,
lighta, phone and other incidentals
would not he less than $20 to $25 a
month. Clothes are the most varis
hie expenae in a family budget. Young
children can lie dressed for very little
If the mother sews, drown ups, espe
dally If holding position* wliero their
clothes must he presentable, require
much, much more money for clothing.
Allow $50 for clothes for five people.
Add I2E for recrestlon. Including
reading matter, theaters, summer vs
cation, trlpa, etc. Another $25 should
he estimated for health, that la In
surance, doctors, dentists, etc. Fop
pose this family save* $25 a month
The tots! Income in this case would
have to be about $250.
Tlila amount could he cut if neoes
sary, and, needless to say. It could be
much Increased. I have made no rs
ilmate for coal, assuming that If the
family pays $75 a month rent. It liar
an apartment with fuel Included.
Could-you be a little more definite
about the ages and requirements of
this family? If the children are in
college, you would have to add a large
sum for each one. particularly If they
are In school sway from home.
Current numbers of magazines have
articles on this subject.
