[quote=Anonymous]I have an altered situation. My wife group up in another state. Her whole family is there. My family is here. We moved here after having kids to "have a better life." My family is more supportive and hands on than hers could be. We've been here several years now and intend to move back to my wife's homes state. While the weather and family are better here, we're making roughly $135,000 and can't get in a position to buy a home. We just can't afford it. We were eyeing THs in the 475 range, but we can get a big SFH back home for 250-300. We want to give our kids more. We want to have less pressure to earn. My wife stays at home working two part time jobs. She'd like to lose one job and be more present for the kids and school. We can't keep up with the joneses. We don't have govt jobs. My family is great but they'll be great in smaller doses also. [/quote]
