Yeah.
Yeah, so as your careers increase, you're going to find more wiggle room probably.
But, yeah.
You're making an average American household income.
$78,000 is the average right now.
And you've done a great job, by the way, to stay out of debt.
Most people in this situation call me up with a car payment or two and a student loan hanging around and then can't figure out why they're broke.
Yeah.
And so you guys don't fall into that.
Yeah, you should be about $5,000 a month take home right now.
So I'm still tickling my brain because it's $6,300.
Now, I'm not talking about every two weeks.
I'm talking about monthly.
So that throws it a little bit because you've got two magic months if you're getting paid every two weeks, two magic months where you get three paychecks, and that throws the numbers off a little.
So that might get you back to where you need to be.
You might be right.
It might be about right because you're not really making $4,500 a month.
You see what I'm saying?
You've got two months where you get extra $2,200.
There should be two where you've got a three-paycheck and one, and the rest of them are not.
