[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Basically this is a story about the stay at home wife of a doctor with a newly renovated house in an expensive neighborhood that prefers to cook and eat in and likes to garden. I don't see anything frugal about her.[/quote] YEP!! [/quote] I agree. I am also a doctor's wife who recently finished medical training and we CANNOT afford to live close in. There is no way we can afford $700K house. Yes, there are loans we qualify for (we get all kinds of physician loan offers), but you still have to pay the mortgage and it takes a while for a doctor to build patient base and to make money. My children did not attend preschool, go to public schools, I clean my own house, etc. [/quote]
