148. Hmmm
Ok so 18,000 year for day care. That leaves 82,000.

No Xbox. Thrift stores. Cook from scratch. No debt. Both cards paid for. No granite.

Make over 100K/year. "About what sort of lives?" you live?

Well, it sounds like you probably live within your means. It sounds like you also have money to play with if you wanted to, but don't blow it on expensive putting your self in debt purchases.

In other words - you live comfortably, and manage money responsibly. No doubt you could put a lot in savings.

So you don't live like an english monarch. But surely you must admit you don't worry about where your next meal is coming from like many in this country do?

The primary complaint is not HOW 100K earners live - it is the 100K earners who want to bitch and moan to the other 90% of the nation that make less than them about how hard life is for 100K earners.
