[quote=Anonymous]Can't make ends meet on 150K with only one kid? That's pretty sad, OP. You really need to look at your budget. Your mortgage isn't that high, day care costs aren't extravagant -- where is your money going? If you want to save, move to another area. You sound very disappointed you are not living on $400K. It's hard to downsize. We did it, and I'm OK with it. I can't change the economy, so I changed my habits. We go out to eat, we stay in and watch movies at home, we travel, not too far, not too expensive, but we get out, find free things to do. Life is short, have fun, OP. Maybe see a financial planner, OP, so you can manage your finances better. And get a therapist to help you with your distorted view of your world. It could be much, much worse, and for many middle class families, it is. Count yourself lucky, OP. [/quote]
