hh of four, 2 in daycare with a budget of 86-90k with a decent mtg payment. if you take out home and auto notes we have a budget of about $54k/year.
This includes going to quite a few concerts, shows, theater, movies, events with kids, road trip, and air travel across country and to Hawaii for family.
Also a couple trips for dad out to Steamboat, Vail, beaver creek some new gear, etc.
I spend money on experiences and health related things. Still save over 35% and in no way jeopardizing our ER.
I sacrifice to afford all of this by never paying retail, minimizing my mistakes and fees, buying things in bulk, minimizing my commuting miles, doing things myself that others would pay, living a healthy lifestyle and being active with inexpensive events, trying to avoid impulse buys and doing my research on expensive purchases.
