Is 2000 a month enough to live on?

Living on $2,000 a month is possible, and we were not the only ones to ever do it! Our budget isn't nearly as tight now, but living with less taught us so much about how to live frugally and make the most of what we had.

There are two types of people who want to live on $2,000 a month. There are the people who only have $2,000 a month, or there are those who want to live on less by living on $2,000 a month and saving the rest. I’ve been on both ends of the spectrum, so I know what it’s like. Let’s start by talking about net income. Your net income is what’s used to make your budget. Net income is calculated by subtracting total expenses from total income. For our purposes, that means making ends meet and striving for a little extra. This article is about using your net income carefully to allow for extra at the end of the month. It is possible to live on this income, and even thrive on just $2,000 a month! I will show you a breakdown of what our budget looked like, how we did it, and how you can too!
