[quote=Anonymous]I think there is a huge difference between a $150k HHI that comes from a single vs. dual earners. $150k is absolutely doable with three kids if you have no (or minimal) childcare costs. Or if they are spaced out enough that you dont have 3 in daycare at the same time (although there are still camps, after care, etc.). Our HHI is 175k and are stopping at two kids. OP, if you do both work then you just need to do the math and see whether you can absorb the extra childcare costs, saving for college, etc. Cutting a few bucks here or there on groceries isn’t going to make up for that.[/quote]
