[quote=Anonymous]OP my DH and I are at a similar salary level with one DS and student loans. After deductions we are taking home about 7K a month which does not stretch as much as you would think in this area. One thing I have learned over the past few years is to be really reluctant to assume any new fixed expenses. We can not afford any more childcare so we did not have another child, and we stagger schedules to minimize childcare in the Summer. We also use Mint to track our expenses. It gives me a good ballpark of what we should be spending in various categories. Good luck! [/quote]
