[quote=Anonymous]We live on <60k (we started at about 45k a few years ago), plus my costs for grad school. Me, DH, and DC live in a very nice 1 bedroom unit across from a metro station in a great area in a "moderate income" unit for about 1200/mo total. We do fun things occasionally, but not a lot because we're super busy. Even though it's cramped and we have to move soon, I love where we live and enjoy the dc area in general. We save a lot of money somehow and have no debt, so if it is possible for us, I feel like it has to be ok for people with two incomes, as long as you are very careful about your priorities and how you spend your money.[/quote]
