Also if you own a home, you have to include maintenance in there that might not happen but once every few years. For instance I had the house restained - $7K. But it was the first time in 10 years and I won't have to do it again for another 6-7. BUT when you average it out, that's almost another $100 a month.

Replacing things like hot water heaters, furnaces, w/d, fridges, etc. also comes into play that you have to average in there.
