[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My parents were frugal because that's how we afforded to do things. I started out making $33k out of college in a big city and just couldn't afford much, so I had to figure out how to stretch my money. Eight years later, my husband and I make $140k (together) in DC with a baby and feel downright rich. I'm always shocked by people who complain about making "only" $200-300k.[/quote] +1 We started here each making about $40k. We were not married then, just dating and living in separate apartments. A few years later we have doubled our income, married, and have a child. I feel rich as well and shocked when I hear people complain.[/quote]
