Howdy....my wife and I live near new york city and have both been through a divorce, she works in the city with a great job, and I am lucky to be self employed. I can earn in a day what most earn in a week. She earns 90k by herself. The problem is we are tired of the rat race. With all we make we have under10k saved. Partially because of kids, and partly because of where we live too. Its very expensive where we live, in the outskirts. We pay for the kids phones, insurance and other stuff too.
We decided it's time to downsize, found a beautiful home to buy in kansas, and our bank wont talk to us becasue it's under 100k, the credit union out there wont talk to us because were not a customer, the local banks in kansas are sending us apps, but they were complaining that once we move, they wont know how much we will be earning.
It's a no win situation, and may force us into working two more years. This way we can pay cash and tell the banks to get lost, but I dont know how other people do it, it kinda sucks. I really fell in love with the house too.
Just wanted to vent, sorry.
Peace
