Travel hockey alone costs us about $20k a year for one. The other isn’t interested in sports tho, thank God. He just wants to join the military after HS and go make a life for himself. So anyway, I’m guessing over $100k a year with everything between the two of them
Just get his dad to pay for it

$2700 out or pocket cost for surgery/arm.
$2400 cost for dental caps.
SIAP but these are not normal month to month costs. And they make up the bulk of your ridiculous position.

My son takes an inhaler steroid that they think has contributed to cavities, which they have not warned us about. He is 3. I brush his teeth twice a day. Apparently you either have hard porcelain teeth or very permeable teeth. His is are not the hard kind. Young kids dont have as much enamel on their teeth
Consider a new dentist.

Some tough stories here but a good friend, on birth meds, had quints, then a year later, an "oops" baby. 6 under the age of one. 2 have physical disabilities, one born blind. Their grocery bills are scary. Diapers? Rx's ? ......Big Pharmcy ,even with some State aide, is raping them. Christmas? She starts shopping with post Christmas sales in the last week of December.

My uncle and his son did kart racing from time my cousin was very little through high school. They had shifter karts that did over 100mph.

I love me some good dogs. But no where near the fulfillment. This is someone who did two years of pre-vet at LSU. It’s not even 1% of the fulfillment.

My $250/month health insurance covers everything. Being responsible helps.

No way to keep up. What used to be a couple hundred unexpected expenses is now several thousands of dollars a month.
This country is freaked up bad right now.
