Haha, not much I would think! But I don't even try to look at it, I have so many costs coming out for just starting out.

So far this month less than $100. I make good money gross, but after deductions, including a full-time employee, not much is left.

I'll answer you Monday...Maybe. 
If I calculate it now, it will most likely sour my weekend.
TGIF!!!

I have 4 DCKs and net about $500/week. This is after expenses...taxes, food, craft supplies, ect.

Depends on your perspective. The daycare families think I make a fortune. I think it's not nearly enough.

Right now with low enrollment, nothing. I'm in the hole.
Just barely paying the bills.

We had a bad 3 years so every cent goes toward paying off debt. I'd say we have 300 dollars per month on top of minimum payments that goes toward a debt.

I have no idea, nor do I want to know. As long as my bills are paid and I have no debt but the house then I am good.
