It sounds like many people here do. I'm just wondering what the % is because at the moment it feels like most do.

Don't know how to make a poll...

no but I also don't live in NY/NJ or in a high cost of living area, and I don't work and my dh has family friendly hours with minimal student loans. Lots of things should be looked at, not only how much income they have.

This year our combined income will be about 200 k, pre tax, if no one gets a raise.

Our expenses this year will also be pretty high

Uh, no. Not even half of that - though we are still pretty young and I hope to get to at least $125 soon (With the help of Hashem!) I'm still trying to figure out how most people with large families and pretty simple jobs live.
