[quote=Anonymous]It's certainly doable -- we started a very similar mortgage at a very similar income. BUT it was easier in our case because we also dumped about $400,000 in profit from our previous house into an investment account, and already had nearly twice that saved (thanks in part to an inheritance and in part to retirement accounts). So we didn't think we had to worry about whether we'd be able to afford to save aggressively with lots of our take-home pay devoted to the mortgage. We do max out both 401(k)s and save into 529s, too.[/quote]
