[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have a HHI of 450-460… some of it is tax free so hard to calculate the exact amount (330 take home). We have 3 kids in private 2 at 42-50k schools and one at a 34k school, but will join siblings to more expensive school next year. We are very tight, but we are still able to pay for extra curricular activities, save for retirement and vacations (not expensive ones). We also still pay for a nanny for my youngest for one more year (we will stop once he is in K). We pay for what is important to us. Some of that income is reimbursement for private school (about 60k after taxes) so we have an incentive. Our income should grow a bit 20% or so in the next couple of years, but thatMs about it. We watch what we spend a lot and don’t save much (other than retirement). Not sure we could manage it with anything less. Our mortgage is 3.5k/month[/quote] Your money isn't tight, you just live a very comfortable lifestyle.[/quote]
