[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sorry, OP, no one ever said (again) bring single on 100k gross or 70k net was hard. I did well with a net of 30k here when I was single. But it is a completely different ball game when kids are in the picture. You want net dollars. My over 200k salary nets me around 130k. From there I have to pay health insurance out of pocket, child care, housing, groceries, etc. I also had to buy a new car when my second was born so I now have car payments again. It's a big difference now, and yes, it's not easy.[/quote] I am the pp who said I will put all my replies together for that Sherlock Holmes poster... That is exactly the point I was trying to make, but you did it so much better. Where else do people feel the need to brag about living comfortably on 100K, single, than here? Possibly NYC and SF? That, to me, is like bragging that you could've spend 10K on a wedding dress, but, you were so smart, you only spent 7K.[/quote]
