[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]..no matter how much you think you are. If you feel middle class, then [b]your spending is probably too hig[/b]h. https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2024/09/16/are-you-in-the-american-middle-class/[/quote] Housing costs. It's housing costs that get us. [/quote] while I agree housing here is very expensive, you probably bought too much house cost wise for your income. I'm not unsympathetic to high housing costs. I used to live in the SF Bay Area. [/quote] Oh absolutely but that was a trade off for us - at the time we were both working full-time, somewhat inflexible jobs in the same part of DC and made the choice to spend more on housing so that we could have decent commutes (and in case of emergency we'd be able to make it home in 30-40 minutes). Even then, sometimes it took over an hour to go 12 miles.[/quote]
