[quote=Anonymous]If you can't live on $200K in this area, the problem is not a matter of money --- it's a matter of attitude. The good news is that attitudes can change. I think you like the gilded cage, op, as long as your husband is the one in the cage and you can fly freely. Surely you know this isn't right. If you love someone, or even if you don't love him, but you have a basic sense of decency and fairness, you wouldn't want him to work 70 hrs per week! What kind of life is that? If you care about him at all, you would want him to have some sort of livable work life. Maybe you would do well to talk to a counselor about your fears of losing what you have. I get that you are sort of counting on him bringing the financial stability, but a couple certainly can live very well on $200K in DMV. We do. And we feel very, very lucky to have the life we have.
