[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Holy sh!t. My husband and I make $300K or so a year and there is no way we could make room for an extra $3K each month unless we literally save nothing. [/quote] yah then you have issues [/quote] You definitely can afford a baby. The real question is whether you are willing to adjust your lifestyle and budget to pay for one? Your take home pay after taxes, insurance and healthy 401k contributions (in Virginia) would be more than $15,000 each month. That is definitely workable and it’s more than what most families with kids have to budget with every month. [/quote]
