What is the point of this ?
I dont understand.
The fact of the matter is they are both obviously not working full time. Even a single minimum wage worker would earn that much. The two of them together working full time should be bringing in $30,000 even on minimum wage. And a LOT more if they earn more than that.
$15K a MONTH....
PER MONTH?
That is 15,000 a MONTH not a year.
IT is a monthly budget..............
Those are monthly, not annual numbers.
The two of them together working full time should be bringing in $30,000
This is a monthly budget.
they also spend WAY too much on housing relative to their income.
Anyone with even remotely decent credit can get a 30 year mortgate for between 4-5% right now.
They are paying $2,000 a month on their mortgage... which means they are living in a $400,000 home while only earning $15,000 !
And why do the have two car payments? HIGH ones at that! They could go buy used cars outright for what they pay in payments every 6 months to a year.
HUH?
That’s $15,000 a MONTH, $180,000 per YEAR, AFTER taxes. Pretaxes, probably around $225,000 per YEAR.
Yes, I read it as annual, not monthly, too.
Hey, did you READ THE HEADLINE?
“a couple that earns nearly $15,000 a month [after taxes]”
A MONTH. Not a year. A MONTH. They make $15,000 A MONTH. That means they’re netting after taxes $180,000 a year.
they make 14k PER MONTH
