Haha, I read with much interest My15HWW’s post about us – A Household with $350K Annual Income Can Still Be Financially Struggling? It’s a great case study of how a Dual Income With Kids household can get themselves into financial trouble by making just a few too many bad lifestyle creep, spending and investment decisions at one time. While I won’t revisit the well-thought-out analysis, I reckon it would be useful to share what I was thinking at the time and how it backfired on me later on.
