[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I dont know, soubds similar to my life but we have less fancy version than you probably envision.

We make 400k and live in Arlington. We have a 4 bedroom house (but bought 14 years ago in a meh neighborhood, so spent 500k not 1.5 mil)..

We are spending a week at an all inclusive for spring break, going to europe in may, doing a beach week in summer. Then probably carribbean for Thanksgiving plus shorter trips to NYC and phoenix (so that is 4-5).

My kids go to sleep away camp (but I only have 2) and pretty much get the things they want. One kid does a competitive sport that is 6k a year. They do tutors and private coaching.

College can be paid 100% if in state.

We put 20% into retirement and have savings.  No debt except one car payment and mortgage.

I guess the big different is house payment. Ours is 2600. So we are able to do a lot after that. [/quote]

Oh I will add we probably do 6 weeks a year. My husband gets the week of Christmas and new years off then he does 2 -3 more weeks off. I take a month off in dec plus 3+ weeks during the year and lots of long weekends. [/quote]
