Really depends on how much debt you have. Zero debt, living completely independently in a new building and having money to go out and have fun regularly?

At least $130k. More if you want to actively save.

Of course, you can make less and survive but this is if you want to be comfortable.

To break even or save a decent amount?

Does anyone find an attack on the Examiner’s prima facia showing of obviousness a lot more effective than distinguishing each and every prior art reference.

Can anyone comment on how effective this is?
