Eh, twice that ($230K) after 401K, insurance, and taxes is barely over $10K a month. Not sure how you got $115K being $9600.

We were talking net, after taxes, and after saving half of the net on a $400k salary.
$115000 / 12 months === $9583.33

They're talking about net, not gross.

Do people really bitching about ~barely~ over 10k USD a MONTH? There's a lot of people living on that or barely double that, for a year. Yes, even in/near SF. Quit with the damn entitlement.

You need $8-10k/mo for mortgage and property tax payments on a median home, so yes, the "barely" part is your entire discretionary budget.

Wasn't bitching, just not understanding how one could get $9600 from $115K.
