What .... "A family of 4 that makes less than $150k a year (which is still a decent income in many parts of the country ....)"
That's a decent income all righty ... in spades. How many, and in what places in this country, are families of 4 (the parents of which are working for THE MAN) bringing in that kind of yearly income??? :h
Yeah any where w/in 100 miles of I95 from Virginia north to Boston and lots of other places too. $150,000 doesn't go that far when you consider mortgage, cars, fed and SALT, saving for retirement/college taking care of elderly parents, and childcare, you have your work cut out for you. All that and you really haven't had any fun yet like sports, music and dance lessons, vacations, etc etc.
