[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Take home is around $10,000 (after maxing retirement, flex spending and health insurance) We have no debt, not even mortgage and pretty substantial retirement, college and other savings, inlcuding a hefty liquid rainy day fund. That said we drive beater cars, have old phones and no cable, and shop at Walmart/Target/Costco including for clothes. We do most of our own repairs and updates (including car maintenace). We do have a cleaning service, but only bc none of us wanted to clean..ever. We do take vacations and have our kids in plenty of activities. I post only to say, it's all about personal choices and what you are comfortable living with. [/quote] I'm not sure there is any virtue in shopping at stores with bad labor practices and goods made in sweatshops when you can afford not to What's the point of having money if you can't use it for the good of the world as well as for yourself?[/quote]
