But you have to owe to have good credit and some find that important. Not me. All of those I owe is food and utilities. No kids. I would guess if I had to, just food and utilities, $6000/6 months.

What really eats me up though besides insurances is diesel fuel. But I don't have to ride the equipment as much as I do.
