151 for phone? I pay $15 a month on a 5 year old iPhone X! Sell the car if it is cheaper to Uber/carpool bike/etc. Internet should be <75, cut cable if need be. Clean HVAC filters, refrigerator coils, use LED bulbs, keep things unplugged if not in use to cut down electricity. Eating out? Twice a month (including date night). Should slash that number in half at least. Coffee can be mad at home for cheap.

My advice, live within your means and it will relieve a lot of stress.

Is that your phone payment, or does that include your service too?

Service only, paid off of course.

I should hope that a 5-year-old phone has long since been paid off. Otherwise they’ve spent $900 on a phone that wasn’t that expensive 5 years ago.

Then I just want to know where they are getting service for $15, because I am paying $40 and my provider is Wal Mart.

Mint Mobile costs me $15/month if I pay for a year at once.
