Not a brag in the slightest! And wouldn’t discuss this non-anonymously.
DH earns just over £250k per year. Has fallen into the role really and is based on natural ability/talent as oppose to lots of hard work and training. He works very long hours though. I’m a SAHM to 3 young children.
Take home is approx £12k per month.
School fees: £3,000 per month
Mortgage, car and bills: £3500 per month
Personal savings £2000 per month
Kids savings: £450 per month
DH and I take: £500 personal money each per month
Leaves us with £2,000 per month for general spending, food shopping, days out, holidays, children’s clothes…
We don’t really go without, but we don’t feel “well off” by any means. Where are we going wrong?!
