[quote=Anonymous]I work part time but between the two of us, we make $100k and it is tight but doable. Besides the obvious cutting out of eating out, expensive clothes, vacations, etc, we also have a cushion of $5000 in our checking at all times. It took us several years to build that up but now that we have it, we never touch our savings and it has really allowed our savings to snowball. Since we already have the cushion, any kind of tax refund or stimulus or extra cash goes straight into savings. Another tip is that I consign all of their clothes. I basically pay for the next season of clothes with the money I make from consigning. [/quote]
