Inspired by another money type/budgeting thread.
Interested to know after all mortgage/rent, bills, food and petrol & small expenses (coffees out/lunches) how much is left over?
We have the equivalent to £470 (live in another country) this will then go down by 200 more our dd starts pre school in spring.
Realise we’re lucky to pay all our bills, mortgage etc, but I didn’t envision a life where we’d have little over 200 to save or for clothes etc...I always had a considerable amount more when younger and before Dd. Does having children really eat up that much extra.
Just musing about times when I’d book European breaks away on a whim or spend a fair few hundreds on clothes, perfume and make up, just because I could...
