[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've been a SAHM for 10 years. After getting married and before having kids, we saved most of my (small) salary for appx. 5 years. DH made around 100k and now makes 175k. We live in Springfield in a not-great school district, but love our house, DH's commute, and proximity to shopping ??Costco and Wegmans! It can be done on 1 salary. Vacations are renting a beach house with extended family rather than trips to Europe, no more shopping as entertainment, but we save for college and retirement without feeling squeezed. I wish the school pyramid was better, but we supplement with classes and activities so it's tolerable for now at elementary age. Not sure how we'll deal with middle or high school but we'all cross that bridge when we get there. Hopefully, the Lee pyramid will improve by then.[/quote] I could have written this...[/quote]
