[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Someone explain the math to me how OP is having $6k leftover on her current budget. By my rough math, $300k is about $13k/month take home after maxing 2 401k’s, HSA, and 529s, and taxes. Take out $3500 for her current PITI, gets her to $9500. For her to save $6k/month she is only spending $3500/month. This includes all utilities, internet and cellphones. Home maintenance, food, dining out, kids activities, gifts, travel, and saving for buying cars with cash since OP says she doesn’t have car payments. It’s just not adding up to me. We make a similar income and don’t live a fancy life and have at best a couple thousand left over, not $6k! I’d love to know the secret because I’m not seeing it. [/quote] I think OP posted on the thread saying they aren’t funding kids college so maybe taking out the 529 contributions gets you closer?[/quote]
