If you think meat is expensive, it's not. So called "health care" is expensive. So called "health food" is expensive. You won't have any problems affording meat once you cut out all the other things you're eating and you'll be able to eat until you're full every day. No more feeling hungry. 5 years on carnivore... I eat plenty of eggs, chicken, pork, beef, and lamb (my favorite). I'm healthier than I've ever been. Sleep apnea, gone. Triglycerides, dropped like a stone. Brain fog, lifted. I'm down to one medication (which is more of a food than a drug since it comes from a cow, a pig, or a sheep). Give it a try for 90 days if you're interested. You'll be amazed how much your body and mind will change for the better.
