[quote=Anonymous]You want to cut your income from about 590k a year to about 240k a year. I don’t think you can expect to do this long term without changing your lifestyle. Your kids are young, too. You have many many years of cost ahead of you. Counting on a grandparent to indefinitely fund private school for 24 years is foolish. In my opinion? Sell your house that you agree is too large and expensive for you, and move to a house you can afford on your income, including school costs. Plenty of families live on that salary and you don’t have to save much money anymore if you don’t want to, since your savings are ok if you don’t plan on retiring early. If you don’t like what that looks like for your family, then taking a job that makes a quarter of what you make now isn’t a good plan for you. [/quote]
