[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Hope this will clarify. As a self-employed person, my cash flow works differently than an employee. I get quarterly distributions, which are used to in its entirety to pay federal taxes, and I also lay a lot of state taxes due to individual and partnership circumstances. It’s apples to oranges to some extent, but the $18-20K is my gross monthly distribution before retirement contributions, 529, healthcare premiums), etc. Keep in mind there’s no match. That is why I used that number. Hopefully that helps.

In any event, a $10K mortgage on $20K still seems untenable?[/quote]

DP. She also pays the entire Social Security tax, so 12.4% not 6.2% of income like employees do.[/quote]

This isn't much in the scheme of things - it amounts to $9,000 of Social Security and maybe $13,000 of Medicare.

I think what is happening is she is only considering her monthly draw but not other quarterly payments.  I'm in a similar siuation as OP (make about $850-$950k as a law firm partner) and take home about half of my salary. So OP should be taking home $25,000-30,000, I would think.  [/quote]
