PM_Mama and AlphaFrog-
$23 times 40 = $920 for a week's pay.
$920 times 4 = $3680 for the month.
$3680 times 67% (which is the average take home pay after taxes, insurance contribution, etc.) = $2465 for a month
$2465 times 12 = $29580 for a year's take home pay.
$29580 to buy groceries, gas, rent (or home mortgage if lucky), utilities, etc. Most people would have trouble making due on that as a single person. Now, add in a family. Even if your spouse is making a 2nd income, it's still going to be tough.
