I’m about 12k/ yr shy, and since my state is on the lower end of cost of living, that’s a sizable gap.

I also have 1 parent staying at home to care for the kids. So technically I need to double mine, which is rather unsavory.

Kids aren’t in the picture for me for largely this reason. Got my tubes tied years ago cuz I just can’t.
