[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] +1million -- I get so frustrated by family living in low cost areas who think we are "rich" because our income is around OP's range. Do you people not live in school districts where the PTA fundraiser is at expensive Potomac Pizza? Do your kids not ask to go to the movies? C'mon...there are all kinds of day to day expenses that most would consider normal, middle class life, and yet I think it is very tough to live in NW DC/close-in burbs with a family of four if you're not making...I don't know, cuz we're not making it... $300,000 at least? Like OP, we make just south of $200K but in addition to that we have medical expense of at least $1K a month. It is hard and our kid thinks we're "poor" because of his warped perception...I complain about the movies, expensive fundraisers, etc...how do people do it?? [/quote] Guess what--your income doesn't support living in upper NW or the close-in burbs, no matter how much you want it to. [/quote]
