[quote=Anonymous]You have the income to have lots of choices OP, but I'm pretty risk averse myself. My single greatest comfort in life is that my husband and I live WELL within our means. While I occasionally have a pang at not having the home theater, or the two car garage, or an acre of land, or whatever... I never lose sleep over money stress. And we have worked hard to ensure that if one of us loses a job, or dies, or something awful, we have ways to sustain our lifestyle on one income. I cannot tell you the comfort that gives me. I know people always say buy the most house you can afford, but the flip side of that is to buy the house you need, that also affords you financial peace of mind - whatever that means for you.[/quote]
