Agh. I should have been like JC and exited myself from this thread. It’s obvious mgubync1 has no reading comprehension level whatsoever.
First you said to everyone who’s having mortgage problems…to just “make more money”. While I’m sure a very few portion of the population will get lucky, most people (like hundreds of thousands of people) won’t be able to just magically make an extra 20K every year.
So, like the rational person I am, I pretty much stated that’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard.
Then you followed up with “So you think people making 65K should buy houses that’s 250K and 20% down.”
That has nothing to do with what I said previously…but to play along, I commented that it IS possible to live in a 250K house making 65K a year. In fact, you’ll be living a very comfortable lifestyle (does anyone want to object to this?).
Then you follow up with “if you live in San Diego …and make 65K, you just flat out can’t afford a house.”
Okay, where in my last post did I say the house is in San Diego? I just stated that with 65K a year, 250K house with 20% down is reasonable. True, you won’t be able to afford a house in San Diego (because I’m sure it’ll be more than 250K), but who says you can’t live in an apartment?
Anyways, I can’t believe I wasted my time doing this. Like JC, I’m out.
