Don't Bother

$70,000 a year equals subsistance for a family of four in the Bay Area. Not good news for the average American, considering that poverty rates rose last year, and median househould income fell to $42,409. I guess you can scrape by if you forego health insurance. I mean, it's nice to have plenty of artisanal breadmakers in the neighborhood, but a man can't live on organic bread and heirloom tomatoes alone. Actually you probably could, if you wash it down with some soy milk for the proteins.
