There's a fine line between living without luxuries and living without necessities.

I'm worried about how we're gonna live and what we're gonna eat. I can just imagine what life with Paul would be like and it just seems miserable!! I can see us on welfare, on state health insurance, on food stamps, on government assisted housing. He's naive and unrealistic with his expectations on how life could be with a salary as minimal as the one he could bring in the the certificate he wants. 

Am I not trusting You enough? Am I underestimating him? Am I asking for too much? Our definitions of a "simple life" do not match up. He's okay with renting a home, with living with parents, with kids not going to college. 

Will he surprise me and actually be able to support himself AND a family? I know he wants to live simply, but I fear that being with him asks me to live in poverty. I'm not okay with it and I know my parents wouldn't be either. 

Am I acting spoiled by wanting a little more out of life with my husband? Is it bad that I don't want to live our lives paycheck to paycheck?
