[quote=Anonymous]$150k here with 2 kids and I feel we have a very good life Great neighborhood with decent public schools and good friends. Travel at least once a month, but those are mostly trips by (10 year old) car and either camping or staying with friends/relatives. Occasionally go out to eat, but much more often entertain friends at home or go to a friends house. We do splurge on organic meat, fish, and produce (though not all organic) but eat meatless half the week. Kids are in some low-cost activities and we spend a little on our own hobbies. We spend a lot of time outdoors, and cooking, both of which are things I really enjoy. We chose fulfilling, albeit not financially rewarding, careers. Save for retirement and just started for college (oldest is in K). I'd be lying if I said there weren't things I would like to spend more money on (mostly travel, home improvements, potentially a third child) but all in all, I think I have it pretty good.[/quote]
