[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This has gone too far when people are conjecturing about how they afford their lifestyle.  FYI - Tesla's can cost less than a Jeep.[/quote]

Stop it with the nanny language police.

And you make no sense. "Teslas can cost less than a Jeep." Uh, ok, and both still are a financial stretch for a fed, a nurse and a family with expensive in home childcare. Never mind when ONE EARNER IS NOW DEAD, cutting income significantly.

I think it "went too far" when BB and au pair started swanning around like "the last of the real ones" IRL in public and on socials, not to mention it was WAY TOO FAR when 2 human beings were MURDERED IN COLD BLOOD, but that's just me. Gossip about the neighbor's stuff and what it costs? It's called keeping up with the Joneses! [/quote]

I don't think you know how much things cost and how much these people make. A PICU nurse probably makes $100K. A GS-15 probably makes $175. A Tesla costs $35K, and if he's leasing it, it's maybe $300/month. The Au pair costs maybe $1500/month (cheaper than daycare). His mortgage (inc. tax and insurance) is probably less than $3500 a month. He could easily afford these things even on his salary alone. [/quote]

BS. My husband is a GS15 and although he makes about 184k/year, he brings home only about 7200k/month - net, after taxes, 401k, flex spending, etc.

Out mortgage is $2100k/month, but that is only because we had inheritance money to pay a bigger down payment (our house is worth about 900k, in Reston and when we bought it, it cost us 675k, with about 50% down payment).

No way we could have afford an aupair, a preschool tuition, student loan, tesla car payment, etc only on his salary alone.

Sorry you can't manage your money well. The truth is, we don't know anything about their financial situation - maybe their parents helped them buy the house, maybe his parents are helping him continue to pay for the au pair or the mortgage on his house. Maybe they did really well in the stock market (we own stock in Tesla, it's increased by 1000% since we bought it). Maybe he inherited money from his grandparents. You have no idea, but clearly he CAN afford to stay there.[/quote]

His housing may be on the taxpayers of VA very soon.[/quote]

BB has been paid continuously since the murders. He’s on an administrative leave, we’re all footing this mortgage [/quote]
