This just depressed me. :o( I'm living in a closet. Meanwhile people who bought 10 yrs ago and make less money are able to have a house. Doesn't seem fair.

just stay away from the big cities...you dont like em anyway. thats where its most expensive...and all of CA. lol

socalgal Aug 3, 2007

OK. $1100 a month IS NOT expensive for a 2 bedroom. here in OC, you're looking to pay $1300 for a one bedroom.

brotherman Aug 3, 2007

Yeah but for $200-300 more you can get a newer place. Sucks only having one income. I can't wait till the kids no longer need to go to daycare. I'll save $500 a month. Many yrs away from that t...

thats right, i forgot you had the kidders. kids alone are expensive. well hey, look at it this way....you can do what the illegals do here..they buy an $800K house and have like 10 families liv...

brotherman Aug 3, 2007

Definitely. Kids bleed you dry. Haha... How do they buy if they are illegal? Aren't credit checks done?
