[quote=Anonymous]$120K give or take, family of 4. It's getting harder and harder, to be honest, because: 1. The kids are old enough to get into serious extra-curriculars, which are starting to become expensive, and that's not even counting possible future tutors and SAT prep and God knows what. 2. We are an international family and do our best to visit our parents abroad, while they're still alive. Airplane tickets are expensive, and they live in capital cities which have a MUCH higher cost of living than this area. So everything over there costs money. 3. We try to save by denying ourselves "frivolous" and "consumable" purchases - but this is not going to make us pay for college! So... yes, sometimes I get depressed. Other times, I am happy that we are sacrificing so much for the future of our children. [/quote]
