#2. We're a bit higher than this - to get to a better quality school system we had to sell when our house had no equity (bought at the bottom of the market and our market dug)<br />
#3. Probably about here - should be higher, but isn't<br />
#4. We're very close to 800<br />
#5. Between the two of us, we're right about here<br />
#6. We are a bit above this; getting debt paid off is primary goal but we're close to 10%<br />
#7. I do not contribute to an IRA yet - we will once debts are gone<br />
#8. Ours was higher than usual, but not $2,800 - now, if you include Ohio city refunds we both get due to our situations, then yeah we're at about $2,800<br />
#9. Mine is well below 13.5%<br />
#10. Ours are projected to be higher, but I'm not worrying about that specific figure right now at age 36.</p>texashaze commented on 'Are You Financially Average?'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451bcbd69e2022ad3560448200c2018-06-25T17:48:15Z2018-06-26T16:35:44ZtexashazeI expected income lower, debt much higher, 401k balances much lower.

Thanks for rounding these up! </p>
