How much do you live on?

[Anonymous]

Just curious what nannies typically live on from the take home pay. My take home pay is around 2000 a month. Just wanting to poll

I take home $1000/week

I live alone (no spouse or roommates) so my place is pretty small but the rent is double on what I make.

I work 43-51 hours a week...net $1125 every two weeks from one family and between/around (too lazy to calculate) $500-$1000 from my other family. Haven't done my taxes yet but I would guess around $45K if I add in babysitting jobs too?

I made around $45K last year from nannying, and another $25K from my business. Total HHI of $140K. We have no kids gets, and live in a small apartment while we save to buy a house.

I take home $975 a week so around 50k. I have two roommates and no debt (everything is paid off, even new car). I was saving for a house but then decided to wait a few more years since I'm considering moving cross country. Right now, I just live very comfortably and travel often. When I finish college i'll be in an even better position in two years.

I'm a little further out in the suburbs and take home about $30,000 a year - it works well for me. I live by myself (1 bedroom apt), go to school, and still have money left for a social life.

I work around 110hrs a week. I take home $1040 a week. I live by myself. Rent is $1800, food and other expenses are around $1500. The sad rest goes into savings

2 nanny jobs, 1 full 1 pt, and I clear 60,000 a year. I live in a very small 2bd apt with my kid and a roommate. My mother had a stroke last year and I send her nursing home 3000 a month to cover what insurance doesn't. My son and I live a frugal (but good) life right now.

I take home about $42K/year as a full-time (45 hours a week) nanny. I live in a condo with a roommate. Rent is $625/month, car is $350/month and then misc. stuff (gym, phone, utilities, etc.) are around $335/month. I also make about $3k/month from a side business bringing my yearly total to around $78k/year. I live very comfortably and travel a lot and don't have to "budget" for big items.

What is your side business?

I make embarrassed to say 'I make 250.00 a week. I am so underpaid but was desperate for a job. I am currently looking for a job that actually pays a liveable wage

I take home 2k a month. I feel like I am struggling. I need to find a way to make more money before going back to school. I hate having roommates.

I don't believe people saying they make 1000 a week at all. I'm sorry, are you Angelina Jolie's nanny?
