[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It was interesting to see what people did with $375K. Now what about us "poor" folks? $9500 monthly take home pay (after retirement/health care) Retirement is 5% and health care is $300 month $2100 mortgage $3500 childcare/tuition $815 student loans $1000 food (includes dining out and some household goods) $500 utilities/cable/internet/cell phones $500 shopping/activities/Target $300 housekeeper (money well spent!!) $250 gas/insurance/parking $100 charity $50 medical expenses (prescriptions/co-pays) $100 life insurance $30 gym Anyone else?[/quote] Savings other than for retirement?[/quote] Unfortunately not. We put bonuses and tax refunds into savings. We also try to save on the months where we dont use our entire budget for food or shopping, but its rare. And yes "poor" was meant sarcastically by DCUM standards. I do not think we are poor or struggling, just broke :)[/quote]
