Laura Steins was interviewed by the Washington Post, for the article (see link below).
$300,000.00 per year in income.
4,000 square house
3 Acres
2.5 million dollar house
In the article Laura goes on about her money woes and how she is just squeaking by on $300,000.00 a year.
Below is a breakdown of Laura's income sources;
$150,000.00 base salary plus a bonus
$75,000.00 child support
$50,000.00 personal investment account
Let me just give my thoughts to Laura;
1. Laura the $75,000.00 in child support is tax free, so that is like $125,000.00 in earned income.
2. Laura you do not need a live-in Nanny, are you to lazy to cook for your own kids.
4. Laura you do not need a gardner, go buy a ride-on lawn mower and do it your self.
5. Laura drain the pool and save the pool man fees, you are paying for a membership to the Y. Just drain the pool and save the money.
6. Laura your daughter does not need a pair of jeans that cost $114.00, go to old navy and buy her a pair for $20.00.
7. Laura your kids do not need a cell phone.
8. Laura what are you teaching your kids with this lifestyle.
9. Laura you and your kids need to go and spend a month with an Amish family, where their is no indoor plumbing, no electricity, wood cooking stove, laundry is washed by hand, the kids are up at 5:00 am working on the farm to feed the family.
3 Kids cell phones at $50.00 per month each = $150.00 per month or $1,800.00 per year.
Live-in Nanny at $40,000.00 year.
Gardener at $500.00 per month = $6,000.00 per year.
Pool man estimated at $100.00 per month = $1,200.00 per year.
I would just like to say you are a disgrace to all of the single working mothers in america.
Take for example, a friend of mine. 34 years old 3 boys who is working 2 jobs, going to school full time online to get her degree. She receives ZERO in child support because the State of California will not enforce and collect on her child support order, and you have the nerve to bitch and complain that you can not do with out the full time live-in nanny and find it hard to get by on $300,000.00 per year in income.
Go and sell you 2.5 million dollar house, move in to a house in White Plains, cook for your own kids, commute just like the rest of America. Below is a house for sale in White Plains 4 bedrooms 2.5 baths for only $254,900.00 you will then not have any mortgage and can live well on your $300,000.00 per year income.
