It's easily feasible. It's all about how you handle your money and budgeting.
And I can bet Rick has a little more than that on his shoulders than just what hes said and STILL living comfortably on his Eagle 2nd year pay.
I care, and reason being, if Rick can do it, anybody can. Nobody's situation is going to be the same, but I can tell ya pretty darn similar.
I'd imagine a lot of it depends on where you live too, which is part of the living frugally. Cost of living can be a huge determining factor and since pay is not adjusted based on where we live - one person living comfortably on first year pay could be way off of how another person is living.
