[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are stuck in this lease for one more year. So I guess we won't really be able to get started until then. My husband and I have both tried for years to get second jobs and it's harder than one would think. We have one car -- not sure where the idea that we had two came from (sorry for any confusion) and we owe more than we could sell it for but are on an aggressive payment plan to own it in a few years. We don't see that moving somewhere less expensive would help. Places with inexpensive costs don't pay the salaries we make here (for our fields) so why move and have the same struggle somewhere else? You all confirmed what I already know: we are stuck. It is what it is, I guess.[/quote] I don't think the salary here directly correlates with the cost of living on a 1:1 ratio. In other words, I think if you moved some place else in VA or down to NC yes you'd be making less but you'd have a significantly lower cost of living so you'd definitely have better cash flow.[/quote]
