[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I tend to agree with the 3 million number. [b] HHI is 300,000 in Northern VA and I feel broke. [/b]

My Net Worth is around 1.3 million but most of it is not liquid.  I often told my spouse that we would feel comfortable if we had 2-3 million in the bank, liquid.  [/quote]

You got budget problems.  Seriously. [/quote]

I'll add my comparison.  I think you'll see how you're choosing to be broke. We spend at least $6,400 less than you do, which is how we save money and you don't.  [/quote]
