Why did you buy such an expensive house? We bought a $350,000 house when we made $184,000. We still live in that (paid off) house today, although we now make $450,000. And we have millions invested.

OP here. Our golden eggs are the future inheritances we will both receive (I hope) from both our parents. Of course our parents are in their late 60s so that may be 30 years from now.

Well a 401k on a salary of 500k should be pretty hefty toward to end of your working years?

Your house is too expensive for your HHI.

Why do you have a 2 M house?

We have a HHI of 750, much savings, and a 1 M house. We want to move but aren't willing to go to 2 M.

And???? You aren't alone, OP, if that helps at all. Washington DC is an expensive place to live and, for those who are "successful," there is a lot of pressure to set our kids up to be successful too. It's a pricey proposition.
