This got me thinking...
I'm 20(Almost 21), and my g/f is 22...we plan to get married in a few years...
I make roughly 22k/year and she probably makes about 24k/year...
So lets say 45k/year or so total gross income...
so thats rougly 3700$ a month or so gross...say 3000$ a month net..
My bills at the moment:
Car(220/month, but should be paid off by the time we get married.)
School Loans(110 a month)
Cell 50
Internet 50
Car Insurance 100 month
She has pretty much the same bills as me(we both still live at home)..minus high speed internet(she has dialup)
I keep trying to tell myself that we can survive off both of our incomes when buying a house...but I cant help to worry about it...
Her Sister and her husband got married a while back, and have about the same income as us combined, and seem to be doing fine after buying a pretty nice house(just under 100k) without problems...
I just cant help to worry about stuff like this..but to put the cost of living in perspective, I live just outside of Pittsburgh, PA..so the cost of living here is much less than the cost of living in NYC or LA...
Any thoughts?
