My suggestion would be getting rid of the car (16,600) and cutting the expenses on charity (18,000)
I would also cut in clothing for 4 people (9,500 per year = 208 per month per person), and 1 holiday instead of 3 (18,000) besides 6,000 per holiday for a family of 4, even if they're paying $500 per person round trip to San Francisco they could get a better deal for hotel and food and not spend 4,000. There's no better city for a staycation like NYC.
What would yinz do?
What would you cut or get rid of if you were lucky enough to be making 250k per year, have a mortgage instead or rent, and have a hubby/bf with an equal salary.
