[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][No one said you had to live IN DC. There are plenty of people who work IN DC who live in homes that cost 350k or less. It is all about choices.

If you CHOOSE to spend the majority of your money on housing, then don't act surprise when the money is gone. You spent it! That was your choice.

For most, money is not an unlimited resource. So choose how you spend it, but stop whining about it.

I'm not seeing anyone saying that's the issue.[b] They live where they live and they're having problems budgeting with their current income. [/b]I'm not seeing how being critical of them for discussing what they must contend with and saying "Oh, you poor dears" is accomplishing anything.

What we have here (especially from a website who attracts perpetual losers and complainers that found their way over to this site via a link from that site) are a bunch of individuals making comments who are not qualified to lend their opinion on any topic, much less one concerning finances.[/quote]

Because they are choosing to spend it. It is basic grade school math.

If you are going to choose to spend the bulk of your money on housing, then you can't expect to have that money left to save for both emergencies and retirement, oh I want private school too, oh Ivacations too, wait wait we need to eat out, I need a nanny too, then there are basic life expenses...

Basic math.

Pick and choose. It is not that hard. Stop acting as if you should live the life of the rare individual who has 50 million available to them. Notice the key word....rare.

Deal with it, or go ask a 5th grader to help you budget. [/quote]
