[quote=Anonymous]OP here.

1. I am not "gaming the numbers" by presenting net instead of gross. I could be grossing a million a year, and it would be meaningless to my point, which is that $70k after taxes is a very nice living.

2. This was to refute DCUMers who have said, not on this thread but on others, that $100k for a single and $250k for a family barely qualifies as middle class. I was trying to inject a dose of reality, and some posters - not the snotty ones above - got and agreed with my point.

3. I posted in the section of this site that is clearly labeled "non-parenting forums." Are you so resentful or think less of childfree people that non-parents are not allowed to post on [i]non-parenting threads?[/i] What exclusionary snobs you are.

4. Finally, you still insist on criticizing me for not maxing out my retirement, even though I am exceeding the recommended amount. At the same time, you'll jump to the defense of people who are unable to support themselves, and give all sorts of support to people who have spent irresponsibly.

There are plenty of people posting here without children, but I'm done. Goodbye and good luck. [/quote]
