Costs of living in Virginia for a family with 2 kids? -

What would the budget for a family with 2 kids (age 7 and 4) living in Virginia and a total gross income per year of 110000 USD look like? The father works as a software developer and the mother works as an environmental scientist/chemist.I am thinking about the costs for- private primary school- food- healthcare- dentalcare- house insurrance- car insurrance- other insurrance- rent/mortgage- utilities (gas, water, heat, light)- cable- other taxes than income tax- transportation- clothes- any other items that is not listed aboveWhat would your estimate be of how much money this family would have left for savings after all expenses have been paid?

Then, furniture and old credit card debts or college loans have to be paid for. Maybe money for 401k or something although lots of companies are paring back on that in this economy (it s the first thing to go). The kids need money for school projects, and giving to charity is something that people do. I assume income taxes and Social Security can take $30,000 out of the paycheck. All of those numbers can go up and down. If it was me, I would always save at least 10% of my check, and I would also set aside lots of money that your budget doesn t catch at first like trips to McDonalds, Pizza Hut, cigarettes or slurpees from convenience stores, cups of coffee from Starbucks. That stuff never seems to find its way into the budget until you wake up one day and ask why you are 15% over budget. And, that is always the cause. The choice is up to you: you can live 10% over budget or 10% under budget. I hope you avoid the credit trap and make sure you come under budget every month for years and years to come. Good luck.If the car or fridge breaks down, or you find yourself without a job, you will want 20,000 in the savings account.

I looked at the number that The New UKKR posted here and tried to find fault with them. I can t. He seems to be pretty much on the money with his budget. There are ways of saving more...but for the most part, I think his budget numbers are reasonable. So, you re looking at $65,000 a year for living expenses...but it does not factor in the cost of private school. You can cut back in some areas and possibly still abide by that budget with the cost of schooling for your children, but it would mean things like driving a cheaper car and eating-in most of the time.Like the man says. Those $4 cups of coffee and snacks from vending machines and other little things you buy along the way can add up fast.

D.C weather in late March? -

I am going to Washington D.C in late March, and I am wondering what clothes to bring. I live in Hawai i where it is rarely ever below 70 degrees, and I know I will have to go buy some things. I am attending a formal conference and I am not sure what to wear that will keep me warm as well as look chic and comfortable. I know I should buy a coat, but what do I wear for pants? Because it s formal I can t wear jeans. Thanks in advance!

Average temps are just that: averages. Like the other poster said, the day could be 40 degrees or 70 degrees.I suggest bringing a warm jacket and wearing short sleeves. If it s cooler, wear the jacket. If it s warmer, you ve got the short sleeves. For slacks, khakis or business casual slacks are fine -- you won t need wool for sure.The odds are that it s going to be around 55 give or take 10 degrees.

It tends to be a little cool in late March, but not as bitterly cold as it is in January-February. Dressy pants will work (if you re cold, wear stockings underneath), or you can wear heavier tights with a skirt.You probably won t need a heavy coat; a simple trench will probably work.

Rainy and chilly.Usuley around 50-60 degrees. I don t personally think it s cold, but my friend from hawaii complains about the weather from September to May. So.. I d go with just regular warm cloths like coats and hats and all that stuff? Imean, I don t know what your doing, but would they let you take your coat off at the door? Also, like I said it does rain a lot then.

in late march it can be anywhere from 40 to 70 degrees Farenheit... it really depends
