$2,000 a Year

"$2,000 a Year." New-York Saturday Press. 12 Mar. 1859: 2.
Type: 
newspaper
Genre: 
journalism
Abstract: 

This article reprints a table from a journal stating how a genteel family of seven can live for under $2000 a year. The author humorously suggests that the rate of subscription to the Saturday Press ($2) be added to the expenses, as a genteel family could hardly be expected to do without.
