[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I asked before, but will ask again: pls post your budget OP. Thx.[/quote] We don't budget-really. We have no mortgage or car loans. We buy our groceries at warehouses mostly. We buy furniture off Craigslist. We have two kids in parochial school and both take expensive private music lessons. When we make a purchase, we ask ourselves if we really need something/ or very important rather than whether we could afford it. OK private school/ music lessons are not a necessity per se but they are very important to us. We travel overseas every other year but stay in local areas rather than tourist areas....so that's about 6 to 7 thousand for a family of 4. We have never made a real budget except we save between 25-35 percent of pre tax income including company matches. It's not like we have a travel budget of X, it's does it make more sense to go to Costa Rico for 5k .or Japan for 9k (hypothetical) etc?[/quote]
