Not saying this is the way I'd go, I'd buy a cheaper place with only $100k household income, but I could swing it comfortably based on the numbers I deal with right now
Hnng at 3500 taxes on 500k home.

Fair enough.

6k net assuming I need to pay for healthcare.
5k would be fine if health insurance premiums were paid for.

Wife and 3 kids.

I am happy with a 300k house in a low cost of living area in the middle of the woods though.

Truth. 6k net is roughly 75k gross in a low tax state.

Average full time working adult grosses 45k.

Believe it or not the biggest variables will be

- who youre dating or married to
- kids or no kids

Based on what ive seen if youre single anything over 70k gross youre gonna be fine. You really would have to define comfortable. One mans comfortable is a lambo while anothers is a porsche boxster.

The question is how much would you have to net to live comfortably.



The majority of humans on this planet will not lead a comfortable, stress free life without worrying about finances.

Lol @ the citycels in here saying 10k+ for comfortable living.

My fiance and I net about 5k and have 1k+ leftover after mortgage, car notes, savings and bills are accounted for every month, and we typically go out with friends at least once per week as well, we aren't just sitting at home all the time. That is plenty comfortable for me, and by next August we will be in the 7-8k net range between us.

I'd rather spend 10k in a city than live in a place where tornadoes ravage entire cities every year (assuming that's where you live)
