That's really a very individual issue. There's no way we could get our expenses down to 2K/month. I'm at work so I don't have my budget in front of me, but just off the top of my head, I've listed $3,000 in expenses and that doesn't include food, gas, car maintenance or registration, health insurance or several other things that would need to be paid. So we're probably at $4,000 or so, more than double yours. That isn't good or bad - just different.
