[quote=Anonymous]We save about 20% of our gross salaries even with 2 in daycare, so I’d say we live beneath our means. HHI recently bumped to $350k. We never traded up houses from the one we bought when we were making half what we make now, or developed expensive clothing tastes or travel habits. Right now our biggest expense is daycare for 2. I wish we could save more, but I like being able to give my kids lessons in the things that interest them, drive reliable cars, and eat out as a family once a week. It’s also nice to be able to help out family and give generously at weddings. [/quote]
