First, make sure tha you contribute to HSA and 401k even if there is no match. Nowadays wives who don't work in IT are working in Walmart as they increased pay and have health insurance. Walmart staff near desi communities are full of desis nowadays. Just an fyi. And yeah, you don't need 2 cars. And car insurance is too high. Should be less than 100. And why 200 for phone? 50-60 should be max for 2 phones. Save more and overpay your mortgage to reduce payments in future. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
