ParticipantLife Balance and Living Within Means
I am not cheap but I am frugal. I tend to buy used cars and keep them at least 5-10 years or longer. Housing is super expensive in San Diego so probably will move and buy a place in a cheaper housing market since I travel for work anyways. If I was super rich like Warren Buffet or Bill Gates, I would live well like Larry Ellison or Jay Leno with the exotic cars and toys.

ParticipantGood to know
I will keep this in mind- however, with layoffs in the IT field, I would like to have another 100k buffer besides the down payment. It took me 5 months to find a job after the layoff this year.

ParticipantAgree
Banks and lenders want 2 years or more with same company so this will give me time to save up more toward down payment. If I end up working on long term federal gigs for a long time then I can buy a place for cheap on the east coast and have short flight to DC/Virginia.

ParticipantRent for now
Thanks, well with the new job, I will rent a 2 bedroom place for the time being and if I do most work on the east coast, look at buying a place in northern Florida, North Carolina, or Virginia to be closer to the projects. At least real estate is way cheaper in these places except for Reston/DC area so I can probably find a great deal for 200k for a large home there versus the inflated 600-800k prices that I still see in PB/OB/Point Loma areas of San Diego.
