[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have a high HHI (somewhat higher than yours), though I suspect we are a bit closer in spending habits to you than to my siblings who have a similar HHI to mine.  We prioritize savings much more than my siblings do.  This is kind of sensible, since I think we will all receive a decent inheritance from our parents (sister will also get a huge one from her FIL and brother is younger with no kids and expects a lot of income growth).  That said, I think their lifestyles are a little risky, they think we're just not enjoying our life enough.

That said, I do shop at Bloomingdale's/NM/Saks, but almost only ever on sale.  We've also stayed at $1000/night hotels (only a couple of times), but using points + discounts received through our AmEx.  I'm of the opinion that a lot of these "luxuries" are affordable with a little effort to bargain shop...but they are still splurges to us.[/quote]

Same here.  We are at about $550k HHI and we don't do anything extravagant.  One kid in private, one in public.  One kid going to college next year.  Each year, we pay about $30k in taxes out of pocket.  Don't get it.  I shop high end, but always on sale.  Recently bought a pair of Manolo's, but only because I getting an award and wanted really good shoes.[/quote]
