[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, but I’m told I’m entitled for wanting a nice home with my good salary. [/quote] You can have it. You just can’t have it where you want it. [/quote] NP. The one thing that it took me so time to adjust to once I started earning relatively decent income is that basically everyone in this area makes about the same salary or within the same band. If you want to live in a "nice" house in a nice area, you need to break out above that band. Right now I think its about the top of the GS-15 scale, so like $180k. It sounds crazy but dual income families making $325k are a dime a dozen around here. But, if you can break out even a little bit above that scale you can too move into a nicer house. So the goal would be a $200k job. Even an amount as low as $20k per year makes a huge difference. [/quote] $500K or more combined HHI is a dime a dozen here. [/quote]
