[quote=Anonymous]I get it OP. I'm not in Arlington, but the next town over :) and we know a lot of people in Arlington, Falls Church,McLean who are making between 500k and 1 million. They live differently than we do with our two GS salaries. We are lucky not to have loans, we bought at a good time so mortgage on our nice, but hardly fabulous, house is okay and we did have a nanny because it was a strong preference. The thing you have to remind yourself is that you are fortunate. There will always be someone smarter, prettier or richer. We take great trips by the way, but they are usually driving vacations, with free hotel stays earned through strategic accumulation of credit card points. We have plenty of food on the table, can deal with emergencies, and can buy clothes, toys, etc. I have some friends with 15 plus 300-500 $ bags. I buy purses at target or tj maxx. I'm still luckier than most people in this country and certainly the world. [/quote]
