<prompt> Human: My wife and I have been in a financial bind ever since she lost her job in September. She was denied unemployment and I make a pitiful amount of money. She continues to look for a job, but the market is horrific so its very slow going. If you guys could help us at all I would deeply appreciate it.Our budget is as follows:Rent: 725 a monthCar insurance: 165 a month for our 2 carsElectric: 80 a monthHealth Insurance: 102 a monthCableInternet: 80 a monthWifes Child Support: 240 a monthCredit Cards: 100 a monthTotal Expenses: 1492 a month, not including food and gasIncome:Fluctuates depending on overtime available, I make 10.05 an hour, and I take home anywhere from 650 to 800 every two weeks.I feel like we are drowning and are going to the bare minimum we can but still be able to function during this difficult time. Does anyone have any suggestions on how we can improve our situation?  <response>: The child support is a burden, youd think with her not having a job she would owe less per month, if anything.Can this be adjusted?As mentioned elsewhere, canceling cable helps. Just did that myself!It seems you are not in debt, though, so consider that a big win!
