I know this is another spinoff thread, but what is a good salary to raise 2 kids, have a nice house, and do comfortable things. 50,000? Never understood how some families have 3 kids, send them to private school, and go skiing in the Alps. Also, if your wife doesn't work, that's less income.

You're doing it backwards.

First you have to do what it takes to actually have the kid. Judging by your posts, I'll say a potential mother pulling $2-300 a night isn't going to cut it.
