[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm curious how this is for others too. We are closer to 400k but we can't seem to wrap our heads around the fact that this is what doing well in this economy in DC looks like. Our money goes to mortgage, one car payment, student loans, max out 401k, childcare so we can remain in our busy jobs, preschool, life insurance and other insurances (homeowner, car, etc). We don't worry about money day to day in terms of buying food out at lunchtime, family meals out a few times a month, babysitters here and there, but I can't remember the last time we had money to pay for a nice vacation or buy a new piece of furniture. Our house is a close-in townhouse so we can get to our jobs with modest commutes that is 3 bedrooms and we can't figure out how we will afford to move to anything bigger in a good school district. Private school is impossible to pay for long term, at least with current childcare costs. [/quote] Are you serious?? You sound like a horrible money manager or not giving the full story. What a joke... Like the previous PP said Boo hoo..[/quote] Agreed. We do better on 280k HHI.[/quote]
