[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is an interesting question. I grew up UMC, in this area. Now, DH and I have jobs that, while not different in education level or social status, pay less than my parents' fields. We make about 170k HHI, my parents probably made the equivalent of 200k or 225k at our ages. While that doesn't sound like that big a difference, I worry that combined with the rising cost of living around here, and much higher cost of college tuition, we won't be able to provide everything to our kids that my parents provided to me. [/quote] We're in the same boat. Growing up I think my parents made around 250k, we are similarly educated and make around 120k hhi now, will probably max out about same HHI as you. We just bought a "starter" house for double what my parents paid.[/quote]
