How well off financially do you see yourself?

26. I'd label myself as middle class

My income is roughly $125,000 before taxes and about $8,800 a month after taxes and withholdings and whatnot. Out of that, I pay roughly $1,500 a month in alimony and another $1,500 a month in child support. So, I live off of about $5,800 a month.

When I used to live about an hour north of NYC, that wouldn’t be enough to support a family of four at a modest level.

Now that I’m divorced and living in the Toledo, Oh area, that $5,800 a month goes quite far supporting me as a single guy.
