[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t understand how you can possibly be spending that much! We eat out or get take out at least twice a week, often more and I feel bad that we spend about $1k a month doing so. How on earth do you get to $40k a year?![/quote] People are forgetting that OP is including all her vacation F&B spending in the $40k, which is three weeks of dining out for the family. When she breaks down the weekly spending, it's suddenly a lot more realistic. Because OP's weekly spending for groceries isn't particularly extravagant and includes the nanny's food at a generous $100 a week, telling her to go to Aldi to shave a few bucks off her spending is meaningless when it does nothing for the big food expenditures - her vacations and takeaways.
