[quote=Anonymous]We used to make HHI 150k and now make over $550k. Our lives have changed considerably. While we don’t feel wealthy, we’re not worried about money. But we still budget. I spent a very long time paying off law school loans. That limited savings. Now that loans have been paid, all extra cash goes to savings. Our home is not new construction but an older home that we renovated. Kids in public, as private would kill savings. With increased income, we save more, travel more and don’t worry about most kids’ extracurricular costs (music, sports, private tutoring). At 150, we were stressed about groceries, daycare, travel costs and just about everything. We can breath more easily but I know that we’re behind in retirement bc we only recently increased income to comfortably level [/quote]
