[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]BARE bones (i.e. things that HAVE to paid even if one of us losses our job): Rent: $1405 Utilities $160 Health/Life Insurance: $400 Car/Renter's Insurance: $150 Food: $400 Baby (Formula/Diapers): $150 [b]Daycare: $900[/b]Car Payment$ 400K Gas $100 Dog: $50 Credit Card: $100 Student Loans: $150 [b]Cell Phones: $150[/b]Toiletries: $75 So, about $4600 bare bones. BUT, when you factor in all the "extras" (401K, savings, phone/cable/internet, gas, toys, clothes, eating out, Target outings, BINGO:-) our actual spend is closer to $6000. We are a family of 4 (2 adults, one infant, one dog). [/quote] Curious as to why these couldn't be cut of one of you loses a job. [/quote] If the person who lost the job is hoping to go back to work, you have to keep daycare or you lose your spot and who knows when you'd get back in![/quote]
