Yes. I have only one plan but it has parts, first the needs and then the 
wants. Both parts will no doubt change. Yes, we are first talking about 
meeting minimum needs. That is essential and comforting. It occurs to me 
that I see some wants as needs. I have watched people who designed their 
lives to survive. And they did just that.
