[quote=Anonymous]$150ish HHI 2 working parents, 4 kids Nice $650k house (with a low mortgage thanks to the huge profit we made on our first home), but nothing too fancy Way out in the burbs in a nice school district that is essentially Family Town, USA Plenty of money for sports and activities Lots of travel (but nothing too exotic--we only fly as a family once every year or two) Our cars are older, but functional. We are fairly frugal, but aren't afraid to splurge. DH and I are vested in pensions and saving for retirement. Saving for college, but planning on state schools. We don't feel like money is tight (except for my pet peeve of not being able to afford a beach house or take more exotic vacations). I think people with more money piss through it unnecessarily. If we made $250 instead of $150, we wouldn't change much (we wouldn't buy a more expensive home or new cars). Instead, we would probably save more (for college) and take more expensive vacations.
