Dual income, no kids. Not living paycheck to paycheck.

But yeah, all of our friends are single and living paycheck to paycheck.

Single (but pretty good) income, and also not paycheck to paycheck. I've got an extra couple of paychecks in the bank and could draw off my retirement for quite a while because I put everything except a couple of paychecks ahead into either retirement or into paying off my house. Pretty much all my friends are living paycheck to paycheck though.

I grew up poor as hell so I'm doing my damnedest to actually have some time to relax.
