It means you're earning a decent amount of money but it won't feel like it because you're spending it all on the house. A lot of financial worrying, budgeting, etc. Everyone will worry more about their jobs and shit. I hope it is at least a plausible two family so if someone loses their job you can rent out a part of the houses instead of losing it.

not flame. we are frugal as fuck, don't know what to say. i actually never understood how other people are so utterly incapable of saving money (including my prole mom) or living within their means on prole wages.

for a while we split an apartment with roommates (4BR/2BA). since our names were the only ones on the lease and we were liable for filling the rooms and stuff, our cut of the rent was like $400/month. then we snagged a rent-controlled 1-BR for $1000/mo for a year. We had a kid and moved to a ghetto rent controlled $1500/mo 3-BR. It's a dump and in a shitty school district and we need to move out, having another kid in June. unfortunately i don't like the trend of rapidly escalating housing costs that we're experiencing but i guess that goes with the territory of having kids.

also we don't own cars so that cuts down on costs.

so if you saw a cheap apartment on zillow, you wouldn't rent it bc it's rent controlled? i literally just set up a zillow alert for a low rent threshold, made an appointment to see the apartment as soon as it popped up, and had my paperwork and deposit ready.

but other than that we don't eat out, don't go to concerts or bars, don't buy expensive clothes or jewelry or electronics, etc

well, if i lived somewhere where i needed a car i probably wouldn't need to get a rent controlled apt to save on rent. places near transit are more expensive and like 40% of households don't own a car.

anyway, most prewar apartments around here are rent controlled.

if you don't want to live like that and spend all your money, more power to you. but people who say it's "impossible" to live on a working class salary are flaming.

Wow so frugal of you to have the luck of living in a place where rent controlled apts are easy to find and 40% of people don’t own cars.

You remind of the finance blogs where the writer paid off their house/student loans because their parents gave them a loan and they patted themselves on the back for being so “frugal.”

luck? we've only lived in rent controlled apartments for two years. before that we lived in a market-rate 4BR/2BA, which we subletted out.

the area i live in has more expensive rents/house prices than most of the country because it's walkable and has good transit. for the rent i pay for my current rent-controlled apartment, i'd probably pay more to live in houston or whatever.

i knew where to find a walkable neighborhood that still had relatively cheaper rents compared to other walkable neighborhoods in this metro. and even then, i had to wait for a rent-controlled apt to open up. cities where most apartments are rent-regulated, like SF and NYC, actually tend to have lower turnover rates and vacancies than cities where that's not the case. the cheapest rent-regulated apartments are in less desirable neighborhoods and are unrenovated. it's doable for anyone, but it takes some effort, know-how, and ability to live in somewhat shitty apartments and fix shit yourself.

don't know why you're so mad.

anyway, i'm getting attacked from both sides ITT.

it probably doesn't help that i get pissed when people think my IRL is flame. only way to confirm not flame is to give potentially outtable details. but whatever.

how much have i realistically saved in rent? not much. most of my savings are from general frugal living. again...only lived in rent controlled apts for past 2 years, lived with roommates before that. if i lived in the neighborhoods my friends live in i might have paid $1800 for rent for a market-rate 1BR. in my neighborhood, i would've paid $1400 for a market-rate nicely renovated 1BR. instead i paid $1000 for an unrenovated 1BR. i'm frugal as shit compared to most people. i haven't been to a restaurant that serves meals over $10 in like 5 years. we cook at home 90% of the time. bargain shop for groceries. haven't bought a drink at a bar in like 2 years. most people wouldn't want to live like that, i guess. but i don't give a shit.

I wouldn't say fucked, but just more stretched thin. I just thought it was funny how everyone heard about your nice retirement portfolio and was like OK NVM UR COOL but really you should just be taking [mortgage/salary and other income] and if that is anything over 3 tread very, very lightly. The fact that you're self-described frugal should help you but your savings rate will have to be adjusted.

Beats getting your house foreclosed on when someone loses their job. This isn't to say you're always renting it out (you generally keep it around as a guest house) but if shit hits the fan then it can save your ass.

Also, if you become an expat you rent out the main house and keep the rental unit. Rental unit serves as a home base if you need to return to the country and also as storage.
