Yeah, I can understand that sentiment. We’ve done this since I graduated from college, when I was making about 1/10 annually what I am now, though. As I said, you get pretty good at knowing what is worth keeping. Besides, even with a low income it is important to prioritize being charitable. We teach this to our kids. If you don’t prioritize it early in life when things are tight, you’re likely not to prioritize it later when most people have even more opportunity to be charitable.
