    I would have time to volunteer with my church.

    I would be able to take my girlfriend out on a date.

    I would be able to see my children.

    I would be able to afford to start a family.

    I would be able to get to the end of the month without
    using my credit card.

    I would be able to afford to send my kids on a field trip.

    I would be able to buy enough food for my family.
