[quote=Anonymous]I think there's a few things here -- so, for instance, $100K total with two working parents is much worse than $100K total with no kids, or with only one working parent. Because if both parents are working, you're losing a big chunk of that to childcare. I wonder also how PP upthread is going to do when her kids hit the teen years. I was so good at bargain shopping for kids clothes/shoes, but you just can't do that for teens. The sneakers are insane, especially if they play sports. I have three and they literally wear holes in their sneakers; we buy them on sale at DSW and I'm still probably spending $1K/year just on sneakers and athletic shoes. [/quote]
