[quote=Anonymous]I just bought a million-dollar towhouse. I put 22% down and about the same amount in savings. I am late 40s, divorced with kids, and make 200k a year and am a career nonprofit worker. I did not get any money that was not mine when divorcing several years ago...in fact, I took less than the law allows, which would have been 50% of our marital assets. We bought our second marital home at 860k six years ago on his income alone, which was 180k at the time. I am a lifelong saver. At 32, I still rented a room in a house with roommmates. I had massive student loan debt (70k in 1999, which was unheard of). I was an English major. My guess is that you are trying to just get a SFH off the bat with purchasing. That is not how most people do it in this area. [/quote]
