[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’d love to know the monthly budget in this income range. [/quote] OP here, we haven't really had a monthly budget (too tedious). We always settled on a minimum amount to save based on anticipated earnings for the year and saved that before splurging else where. Rather than have a spending budget, we make some conscious choices, such as spending max of $150 for monthly family dinners, but do takeouts/cheaper places one or twice a week for $50-$80 or so. Use credit card points to subsidize travel, but clothes on sale (for the most part). That said I have splurged on a couple of designer bags (once every 4-5 years), my DH has a couple of expensive watches. Kids have expensive tutors, classes. I think once you have your savings in place, what you spend on doesn't matter as much, as long as you get joy/satisfaction from it.[/quote]
