How much of your income should go towards your child’s
extra curricular (e.g. figure skating lessons)?

As much as you want and can afford. I don’t mean to sound
glib, but I don’t think it’s any of my business to tell people
how to spend their money. My thing is that people have a balanced
financial life, covering all the bases, and not going into
debt for crap. If you want to spend all the extra money that
available on your child’s extracurricular activities, have
a blast.
