[quote=Anonymous]OP here - Blast from the past - this is my thread from 9.5 yrs ago! Barely ready here a few times per yr anymore and happened to click on this thread. So I did end up leaving the city and buying a car (not luxury, more like a reliable Japanese car). Still living below my means a decade later - IRS max in retirement + saving about 1/3rd of take home yearly with that number being much higher in 2020-21 with no place to go in the pandemic. I have a feeling that's about to come to an end as a splurge on a pricey house is around the corner. But feel WAY more ready for it as the NW differential between a decade ago and now is really significant - and this house is part of our retirement planning in a way. Glad I kept at it for the last 10 yrs - stepped back into an easier/lower paid job but kept living in less than that.[/quote]
