I guess i was a little naive? Having to shell out $60k/yr JUST FOR THE ESSENTIALS sure seems like alot to me. What kind of pretax income are we talking about to finance this? Given that you are paying for any sort of semi-frivolous thing over and above this, as well as paying taxes, IRAs, and i would hope investing a good chunk. Im guessing that you guys are pulling like 150k?
FWIW, the "ex-wives" option was meant to be anything >$5000, not necessarily due to alimony. I just figured anyone with a $5k nut had to be middlemanning a bunch off to others. Ahhhh, youthful ignorance.

Dude, my rent is $3300, and that is cheaper than my last place.

rent 170EUR
monthly u-bahn/s-bahn/tram pass 67EUR
Health Insurance 90USD
Everything else, maybe 250EUR, if that.

so i guess around $650 or so.

I voted "I have several ex-wives", which is sad, because I don't have any ex-wives.

counting food, gas, insurance, everything i spend maybe 1200/month if my estimation is correct.

i buy games and crap like that occasionally. i have never balanced a checkbook, i don't have a budget, and i don't limit myself on buying things i want to buy or anything like that. i just don't spend much money. i am curious about it now though and maybe i'll go through and find out how much i really spend. all my post-tax money goes to the bank/index funds.

mortgage is half of 900

condo fees around 100

no car payment

i don't pay electric, i pay cable (tv and internet) for about 100

cell phone, magazine subscriptions, and all of those sort of entertainment things are under 100

car insurance, home insurance, umbrella insurance, gasoline, and all that i'm not exactly sure but it's probably about 150

food is probably about 10 bucks a day on average so 300 there (this will go up when i'm not dieting but not signifigantly)
