[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We live in a 3m home. Our mortgage is 11k per month for a $1.8m mortgage. Dh’s salary is 400k. Monthly take home is 18k per month. We easily live off his salary and save and invest every cent of his $1.5m bonus. Our house is almost double the cost of OP’s friend but we can still afford it on just the salary. It would have been a stretch if DH didn’t earn seven figure bonus. 1.6m home with say $1m mortgage or 7-8k monthly mortgage? Totally doable on biglaw senior associate income. I’m a SAHM of 3 kids. This is our third home. I used to save my six figure bonuses when I was working. No family money.[/quote] A $1.5 million bonus is a game changer. You are basically buying a $3 million home on $2 million/year. Not even close to similar as what the op is saying. [/quote]
