[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This has to be a troll post. [/quote] I don’t think so. I think it’s a pretty typical UMC budget. [/quote] All I know is that anyone with this budget is either regularly bringing in $400k+ HHI (which is by no means "typical" - that's the top 2-3% of households in the US) or up to their eyeballs in debt. As to the original post, the most absurd is $2500 for shopping. How?? We spend maybe a fifth of that on clothes, misc Amazon purchases, etc and we're not exactly penny-pinchers, if we want something we buy it. I can't even comprehend spending that much on random stuff. Twice-weekly housekeeping seems a bit excessive, we pay 250/mo for twice-monthly and it's enough to keep the house looking nice. 750 seems a tad high for a car payment, but compared to everything else it's not that bad I guess. 400 is pretty reasonable for phone/internet, that's about what we spend for FiOS + two cell phones.
