[quote=Anonymous]Still ridiculous to read these posts. Especially those that have high 6 figure salaries. If you had bought a smaller, less expensive house, you would have more money. So it is not "tight" for you, but rather you made a choice. We made 51K for the last few years (no pay increases till this year) with one, then three children. We have no problems. We get no assistance. We live happily. We own a townhouse in NOVA (nice area) and have two cars. Our child goes to preschool and I SAH. It will be tight when our other two (twins) start preschool. We had savings before marriage that we have to count on sometimes. We have cable, cell phones and go out to eat. We host parties and go out on date nights. So, if we can do it, anyone can. [/quote]
