[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP it sounds like you’re spending more than you earn and didn’t ask any detailed questions about compensation in your new job.

What do you want? We can surmise that the house is an expensive house in a good school district. Send one or both kids to public school for a few years. Or refinance your house. Or apply for financial aid. Whatever. [/quote]

Well, if you read my actual post, I asked if anyone else struggled at first and when it changed.[/quote]

Most people were coming from being highly compensated senior associates and non-equity partners and had, you know, savings before doubling down on the mansion and private school. Its not fair that people can be this stupid and still be rich. [/quote]
Oh, good lord. We saved and saved to buy a home. Then we bought the home. So we didn’t have much more in savings. We also have another income. If you’re not this rich, I’m going to assume you’re even more stupid. We do not have a “mansion”. We have one kid with special needs that requires private school. Most people don’t make, you know, wild assumptions when asked a simple question unless they are, you know, dicks.[/quote]
