[quote=Anonymous]No offense to PP, but $200K with no kids is EASY. Childcare is like a second mortgage. We make about $190K, mortgage is $2400/month (after refi, which I would recommend, but I think you've missed the great rates). Childcare is $1600/month. Groceries, about $600/month. Savings are good (we do about 10% of salary until we reach the limit each year) and have built up about a half mil there, but I think we could be doing better avoiding things like eating out to save even more. We also spend a decent amount on classes for DD and on international trips (a must to visit family). Pre-kid, we were saving $4000/month easy. Now, I think we won't hit that until we're empty nesters![/quote]
