[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here - I also find it hard because I grew up in a large house (4000 sq ft) and have always had big family get togethers growing up. However living in a high cost of living area makes it to hard to have a large house.

Dh and I make $500,000 but we have a ton of student loans and have had 3 kids in daycare which cost an arm and a leg. [/quote]

So pay off your loans aggressively, then buy a bigger house. I don’t get why people with high incomes let the loans stick around. [/quote]

Op here - we are paying them off aggressively. We pay $3500 a month on student loans, $3500 a month on daycare, $3000 a month on mortgage. [/quote]

This only adds up to $10k.  You should have plenty of money to upgrade to a bigger house![/quote]

Yes but that doesn’t also include retirement, savings, health insurance, food, utilities, etc. [/quote]

Okay, I mean I do all that on $250k, so you should still have plenty left over![/quote]
