[quote=Anonymous]We make 400k combined. Spouse is a lawyer and could probably make his salary anywhere in the country. I'm very lucky in that I make $125k with two liberal arts degrees (one is an MA). I doubt I could make that kind of $ anywhere else in the country with my degrees. We bought pre-bubble so were able to trade up to a beautiful house 4 miles outside of the city. Short commutes, great schools, nice neighbors, with all the benefits of DC a short Metro ride away. I travel for biz and I'm always grateful to come home to the DC Metro area. We have wonderful friends, really sharp colleagues, and DC is a great city. It's true that there's a lot of bitter people on this Board and I've met my share of bitter people in IRL in DC but why focus on them with all the other positives? [/quote]
