[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are jobs with salaries of $180-$185K really considered "middle-class" jobs?[/quote] Not to me. To me anything that's six figures is a lot.[/quote] Sorry to rain on your ideological parade, but a HHI of $145K with two kids in daycare is hardly a life of luxury. Since DW went back to work, I've been dinged with late fees on mortgage, HELOC, both daycares and of course my bank due to NSF, it's nearly impossible to split the first paycheck on mortgage plus a month of daycare. Thankfully, I've worked out weekly payments with daycare. Oh and I had to apply for a reduction in my student loan, so now I get to pay more interest over the life of my loan. [/quote] While I agree with you that $150k hardly buys the luxury a 20 year old version of me would have thought, your problems sound more budgetary than income oriented. Cut what you can and reduce your stress.[/quote]
