[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]+1000 DH and I lived in a condo for 6 years. We lived off one salary and worked 2 jobs until first child born. We put most our savings into a home after 5 years. We did not have things others find necessary- gym membership, two cars, home phone, cable, eating out, etc. Granted, we had good professional jobs but we wanted a nice home in a nice neighborhood when our kids went to school. [/quote] This is a red herring. Other people who didn't pay for gym memberships weren't able to buy a condo in an expensive area to get on the property ladder for a wide variety of reasons. They weren't just irresponsible big spenders. I hate this "we were virtuous, why can't everyone else be too?" [/quote]
