[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s easy: just don’t increase your burn rate. Save and invest. [/quote] That’s a good idea but I am not even sure what my burn rate is. I could go back and look to see how much I spent on certain things in years past compared to now, but that is hard (for me, like I said i suck at this) and it doesn’t account for recent inflation. Plus we are spending on things now that we didn’t before like therapy for one of our kids and more activities for the other. And I admit that DH did get a huge raise (I can’t calculate exactly how much but maybe 50K) so that’s a mental barrier to avoiding lifestyle creep. But yeah I probably should just go compare a month from last year with a month from this year. [/quote]
