[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Living on less that $100k is absolutely doable, even here! Sure, you will be making less than a lot of other people in this area, but you can still have a nice life. Our HHI is around $95k. We own a home in a nice neighborhood, I have one child in day care, have excellent medical / dental, we save for retirement, have a college savings plan for our DD, and still get to go out and do fun things on the weekend. We also take one nice vacation a year. The trick is that you have to live within your means. Forget about keeping up with the Jones. Just budget a little. [/quote] I was the pp that wrote how it seems impossible to live inside the beltway on less than $100k or even close to it. Where do you live if you do not mind me asking...I was not sure you posted and meant you lived inside the beltway?[/quote] We live in Rockville. It's not in the beltway, but it's really not that far away from the city. Very close to the metro and public transportation. It works well for us. [/quote]
