[quote=Anonymous]We have a HHI over just over $200K and two kids in preschool. Yes, kids are expensive and preschool for two adds up and it's an expensive area, but still. We do modest vacations, have a nice (not huge) home just outside the beltway, two mid-range cars. We're not quite pay-check-to-paycheck but we're not far from that, and we're certainly not putting away a huge amount for college and retirement. (To be fair, we did save for retirement at a good rate before the kids came into the picture.) I know that $200,000 isn't by any means wealthy for this area, but shouldn't we be able to to have a bunch of cushion if we are not throwing money away? [/quote]
