[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]HHI - 550-600k

We budget about  12-15k a month but that has a few thousand dollar buffer in the event of unforeseen expenses. Curious what others spend, all in.

This does not include our savings.[/quote]

Wow! What do you do with the rest of the money? I make about $150k and spend about 10k on four people.[/quote]

??? How can you do that and pay your taxes? And do you have literally no savings??[/quote]

Correct. I am not able to save anymore. I used to. Luckily college is saved for, but no with taxes and expenditures for the kids, no savings.[/quote]

You need to get it together. [/quote]

I am not UMC. Just MC. We don't have savings. Sorry.[/quote]

You are living like a biglaw partner family on a GS12 income. [/quote]

LOL. The majority of people cannot have a home, car, kids, utilities, food, and college in the DMV under $100k spending. All of my averages including mortgage are less than the average here. You just don't understand because you make more. I don't get a discount on internet just because I make less. If you've noticed many people forgo kids altogether for this reason. Get out of your bubble.[/quote]

You’re spending way too much on kid “expenditures.” It seems like you’re the one in the bubble that you don’t see these are choices and not ones inflicted on you by your zip code. [/quote]
