[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a fed, so is my husband, we have enough to live perfectly comfortably for years, I have too much in cash. None of the bozos cheering this on would admire me- they probably think we are overpaid fat cats instead of risk averse people who worked hard to get here.[/quote] Isn't this the rub? If you don't have a ton of savings in the bank, you're wasting money. If you have enough to save, you're overpaid. I'm in the aforementioned category of fed with young kids and teacher spouse. I curse my risk aversion lately since it feels like chasing stability got me nowhere. The only good choice it forced me into was not moving out of our tiny starter TH when we could afford to last year - I was worried Trump would be elected and start firing feds. And here we are. Still can't support the family on teacher income if I lose my job, but the mortgage is 1/3 of what it would be had we moved a year ago. [/quote]
