Where are the $100K jobs?

Fuggy,

Maybe your husband just isn’t very good at what he does… or maybe he’s a lousy interviewer. Maybe he’s a fat schmuck. Maybe the person interviewing him didn’t like him for some reason. Not knowing him it’s hard for me to say.

What I do know is that your assumptions are ridiculous.

Employers in San Diego

Tend to pay a lot less than in other major cities like Silicon Valley and NYC- think they are still stuck in the stone age economy way of thinking!

This is a job search site for 100k+ salary jobs. I’ve haven’t looked at it though:

Concerning the IT jobs, I wonder how many work hours, and are these people on-call.

BTW, what is the percentage of population in high paying professions like Medicine, Law and Engineering that are also new first time homebuyers? I doubt it is a large enough percentage to consider that the norm. I would say they are a minority and insufficient. A large percentage of professionals who are experienced enough to earn such a salary are already homeowners and not in the pool to create new demand.

Remember that higher earners also have bigger liabilities like their BMW/Lexus/Mercedes lease, vacations, partying out etc. They are not about to give up their entire lifestyle and live on Ramen noodles to buy one of these overvalued houses even if they would qualify. And yes, their expectations of a house are also that much higher than average so they are not likely to be content buying some small matchbox size crappy condo for half a million dollars.
