[quote=Anonymous]HHI is a little above 400K. 1 child in public HS. We probably spend $12 K on travel a year between one bigger trip, a smaller trip, and visiting relatives. This year we might not do the big trip because we took two last year. I spend about $1,200 a year on botox. DH and I buy pretty much all the clothes and shoes we want but our tastes are Nike and Vuori and JCrew and the very occasional 1K suit, not designer bags. Same for our child. We are conscious of money spent on food when we start eating out too much but don't really restrict as a rule. We cook at home 90% of the time and don't eat a lot of meat and shop at Giant and TJs so our grocery bills are not huge. That's a big luxury to me, to be able to buy whatever I want and create meals and cook creatively. There was a time of all generics and no berries and lots of beans and rice when we were younger. I appreciate the freedom very much. Our mortgage is $4700 a month. Other than that no debt. [/quote]
