In April, we had another amazing income month and a reasonable expense month.

This month, our total net income was $36,092.93.  In addition to my wife’s regular paychecks, she sold $22,101.87 of her company stock.  She received $120 in company reimbursements this month, we received a $725.36 refund from Southwest Airlines, and we earned $72.60 in interest income from our savings account.

Our expenses this month totaled $17,594.64.   Large, non-fixed expenses included $5223.01 for vacation, $1,047.43 for clothing, and $601.11 for medical expenses.

Next month, my wife’s paychecks will be larger because no social security will be deducted (hit max for year).  This will be the case for the remainder of 2026 and should allow us to invest/save more money each month.
