[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not at all. At that dual income level [b]you have to worry about searching for things to spend (waste) money on. [/b] But the dual income gives you some household staff to spend time with instead of the wife, which is sometimes preferable [/quote] This is such a strange comment. I make about 460K. DH at 200K. We don't look to waste money on anything. I have the same budget that I did from 3-4 years ago when I made significantly less. I save the overages to increase retirement. Who in their right mind is looking to blow cash? We do take nice vacations but it is a significantly smaller percentage than what we save. Yes, I had a nanny when kids were in pre-k and K but no longer have nanny now that they are in ES, MS, HS. No other staff. I think you confuse the $400HHI with the $1M+ HHI. That's a hugely different lifestyle. $400K is not household staff level. [/quote]
