Default Re: how much money would you bring home in a month after taxes are taken out?

It is very relative to the housing market in your area. For example, if an average rent/mortgage in your area is $800/mo, a monthly net income of $2400 will allow you to live within decent standards.

However, if you live somewhere that the average rent/mortgage is $3000/mo, a net income of $2400/mo won't go very far.

Personally, DH and I net ~$6500/month and our mortage is $1600/month.
