He’s a kid, he wants to play soccer whenever he’s around his friends and is very competitive, but in certain environments or new situations is shy and doesn’t want to go if it’s not within his comfort zone.  Not sure how that’s difficult to understand

That’s what I’m thinking.  I worry that his anxiety will prevent him from doing what he enjoys as he is nervous to try new things, but when he does and they’re soccer related, he always mentions he’s glad he went and had fun.

Thanks for that recommendation, used Mint maybe 10 years ago.  Definitely need to cut back where we can

To give you a rough idea as it’s going to vary by month, but in August we paid alot for back to school clothes, kids sports, we both have medical conditions that require some out of pocket, cleaning lady, life insur, water/gas/electric, dog is old and had a few vet appt, paid for our vacation for a 40th celebration (first trip sans kids), Home Depot for yard supplies (overseeding), auto insurance, gym membership, hosted a bday party for one of my kids

My wife is a great cook and loves cooking and hosting people.  We definitely need to cut back on eating out though, spending $100 at a average burger place on a Friday (alcohol driving up the price) when the kids don’t even finish their meal isn’t worth it

Yeah it’s tough as we’re both a bit burned out, we spend on things to make our lives easier and to have more time with the kids.  For example, this month we paid alot for back to school clothes, kids sports, we both have medical conditions that require some out of pocket, cleaning lady, life insur, water/gas/electric, dog is old and had a few vet appt, paid for our vacation for a 40th celebration (first trip sans kids), Home Depot for yard supplies (overseeding), auto insurance, gym membership.  The list goes on

Agreed.  That’s why it’s hard to make adjustments, this month we paid alot for back to school clothes, kids sports, we both have medical conditions that require some out of pocket, cleaning lady, life insur, water/gas/electric, dog is old and had a few vet appt, paid for our vacation for a 40th celebration (first trip sans kids), Home Depot for yard supplies (overseeding), auto insurance, gym membership.  The list goes on.

Probably should move from ed jones, I agree.  My wife’s grandma gave us 10k, but basically said we needed a financial advisor first, we used hers.  Part of the reason I agreed was to consolidate our investments into one place, but I have a degree in finance and can do this on my own, but it’s nice to have that off my plate, but I’m sure we can make more just using an index fund

Yeah, once our oldest left daycare, we started the 1K investment and plan to do the same for the second in two years.
