I don't know what everyone does here for a living. I just have to know, has everyone in WW become a banker/stock broker/lawyer? Is everyone in the import/export of drugs? WTF do people do to afford $4-900,000 houses?!?!
Don't get me wrong, my wife and I clear $100,000 together annually. Not too shabby for folks that barely graduated HS (out of laziness), had 2 kids at a younger age, AND got a late start on any kind of career due to military service. I don't see how people can afford $3000+ mortgage payments!
Anyone here in real estate? I just don't get it.
Point is this: Wife and I are tired of renting and want a home of our own. We can't buy land because we can't put 50% down. (This was our original intention.) Must buy a house. OK, fine. If we want more than 4 acres (and we do) we're looking at the middle of nowhere and a much longer commute and prices that are still VERY extreme- ESPECIALLY for a freakin stupid mobile home.
This bitch ranges from Maple Valley to Roy and has been on my mind since we moved back here in '05.
Sorry to whine!
