[quote=Anonymous]For a 4 person family, what is a good [b]total[/b] amount per person in the family for these [b]altogether[/b]:

A little cash for spending money
School (supplies, field trips, yearbooks, all the extras)
Gifts for others - like choosing a gift for a friend’s birthday
Sports or extracurricular
Gym memberships
Nails, waxing, haircuts
Subscriptions for tv, news, podcast, media 
Home decor (indoor, outdoor)
Clothing

These are all the categories we consider Fun spending money. 
We see money as Income - Needs - saving and investment - Shorter term saving for big things = the rest of it is Fun spending money.

*I know clothing can be needs, but at some point, it’s not.. we have enough to be physically clothed, it’s all frivolous upgrades from here.

I’m actually not looking for you to give me a breakdown of costs per category. I just think.. [b]total[/b].. what’s fair for someone over a whole year or month?

*if typing it out per line helps you total it up, that’s cool

Thank you![/quote]
