[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's not crazy to stay, OP, if it's working ok for you! We are similar but slightly bigger house, higher income wo debt and just 2 kids. I had wanted to move for all the reasons but we haven't - very manageable monthly payment with a great interest rate. Love the neighborhood etc. Guess what? DH lost what we thought was a very stable fed job and at least for now we are still ok. I'm so happy we aren't overextended. We don't have to cut back on much immediately etc. There are upsides to not living financially at the outer edge of what you can afford.[/quote] This 100%! You don't have to stress if one job disappears (or one spouse is physically unable to work do to medical issues). There is no need to live at the outer edge of what "you can afford" Most who choose not to do that are actually happier [/quote]
