unmarried, I’m 33 and my girlfriend is 30, combined income is $213,000/yr. including bonuses. Currently renting a 1bd for $1350/mo. Will not consider buying until the prices go down such that a household making $75-80k/yr can buy a decent place.
June 7, 2007 at 8:36 PM #57757pnileshParticipantMarried and no kids… income about 175K. Currently living in a 1 bedroom apartment with rent = 1000.

June 7, 2007 at 9:19 PM #57773AnonymousGuestMy girlfriend and I, no kids. Her 84K salary, me 72K salary plus incentives, about 15K. Total Household 171K. Currently renting 2/2 in LaCosta, $1500 month. I don’t feel we can afford the median priced home(720k in Carlsbad), even at our income level and with 20% down.

June 7, 2007 at 9:28 PM #57776LookoutBelowParticipantMe. retired early from primary occupation, with full private pension, small business, 1 employee (me) and 2 telephone lines….. wife, private practice ….Many times over median income…Currently renting in La Jolla for 3,500 per mo. Sold off all property back in 03…..Circling like a buzzard waiting….waiting….Not sure if we will ever get back into the ownership game again…It would have to be pretty compelling, tax incentive is not enough of a reason…Taxable income exposure is minimal
Both of us USC grads. Wayyyy back in the time when dinosaurs still roamed the planet

June 7, 2007 at 9:33 PM #57779Dr KevinParticipantSounds like there’s a lot of USC grads, either in San Diego or on this board.
And btw, the ppl who said the average SAT score at USC is 1300 is really off. It’s been 1350+ for last several years. GPA was around 4.0 weighted i believe.

June 7, 2007 at 9:58 PM #57784AnonymousGuestJust remember when looking at recent SATs that the scores were ‘renormed’ upward 10 years ago or so by ~100 points; e.g., 1300 today equals 1200 then.
Also, the new SAT is an achievement test (test of knowledge), not an aptitude test (intelligence test) as it once was. Today, you can study for the SAT and improve your scores.
The SAT was created to discover diamonds in the rough (e.g., poor but smart Jewish kids from the Bronx in the ’30s). Now, like many things, it has been watered down and dumbed down.
