Timba, you sound like the overspent American.

Obviously insurance costs for an overweight, older Florida resident are not applicable to the nation as a whole.

You should factor in your higher medical costs when you decide to indulge in Steak and Lobster with extra butter and sour cream and then top it all off with a pack of cigs.

It's a lifestyle choice Timba. You've chosen to overindulge yourself. That's your own fault.

We eat out often and the prices at our favorite restaurants have gone up at least 30% in the last couple of years.

What places do you eat at?

Cheesecake factory and the melting pot will eat you up.

There are many more for Fl:

you can still eat at those high society places and pay low society prices - or are you the kind that feels paying more is a status symbol? I have eaten at some of the nicest restaurants in the tampa bay area for free or very low cost. I don't know how some of these places stay in business.
