[quote=Anonymous]I think we made around 220k last year. DH works FT and I work PT/consult so my income fluctuates (~50-60k for me). 2 kids in elementary, SFH in the suburbs that was bought when the market crashed (we realize we are very lucky here). It's tighter than I would like which seems crazy to me based on our income, but our kids' activities are very costly. We bought a new car last year and have a commuter car purchased in 2019 that has mainly sat in our garage due to WFH which we just paid off that will be our oldest's car down the line. We were very aggressive in terms of retirement savings in our 20s/early 30s so are way ahead there and DH will receive a fed pension upon retirement. We try to take one big vacation per year and do some weekend trips here and there. We have done some major house projects over the last few years which we paid cash so would like to focus on building this back up some. We will cover 4 years of in-state for both kids, but not planning on anything outside of that. [/quote]
