[quote=Anonymous]We are just under $300k. It seems like a ton of money! But yes, I do marvel sometimes about how fast it goes lol. We live in a 1500 sqft home, send our kids to state schools, drive old cars, have mostly old crappy furniture. But having grown up truly middle class, I can say with certainty we are living pretty high the hog, in a pricey suburb of a major city, with all its cultural amenities, with the ability to save for retirement, travel internationally on occasion, send our children to college without taking on (or them taking on) any debt, pay our credit cards in full each month, and pay cash for a new boiler when the old one goes kaput. Most of these things are beyond the means of the middle class. [/quote]
