[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This was basically me. My parents are+ scholarships paid for my undergrad, and my DH had a $100k inheritance that he had been saving for a down payment. We bought a $600k house in the city, with a $2800 PITI. We earned about $220k HHI as DINKS and felt extremely comfortable. We probably could have been fine on $180k or so, but maybe would have traveled or updated our house a lot less. Even with after one baby, it felt OK. We had daycare costs, but we also stopped traveling and eating out as much, so it kind of evened out. It didn't really start to feel tight until we had a second kid. [/quote] Thank you.[/quote]
