[quote=Anonymous]I’m the PP asking about retirement savings in the other post, but we are a couple of years younger than you are our HHI is similar to yours. we have a 4K PITI. This gives us breathing room in other areas, like maxing out retirement, childcare, home maintenance, one to two nice but not extravagant vacations annually, and likely private school for 2 kids. 6k would be doable but would come at the expense of other things - in our HCOL area, we’d either have to have a higher PITI to live in a better school district, or a more affordable PITI and private school. We are fortunate that grandparents are covering college for our kids so we do not need to fund 529s. [/quote]
