[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What’s your HHI and what would it be at 45 hours per week. If you are really working 65 hours per week that’s not going to work long term. You need a long term plan. Is your plan really work work work and then die? Life is meant to be lived a little. Your kid can go to your state school and still be a doctor or lawyer, k?[/quote] OP: we’re at 400 right now. We are both in our late 30s and until recently we were at 250. my husband also would want us to move to a bigger place (I don’t) and he likes taking nicer vacations than I do. He would not want to downshift. [/quote] Your HHI is 400k a year and you can't cut back, save for one child's college and your retirement? Sounds like you need to downsize on your mortgage or spending habits somewhere . . .[/quote] We can absolutely. I meant if I went down. [/quote] You're saying you can't cut down from HHI of 400K and adequately save for four years of college for one child and your retirement. We are missing a lot from this financial picture. I think you know you should want to spend more time with your family but don't want to. Just own it.[/quote]
