I guess its worth the money to them, to live where they want to live...but, by golly, if I'm paying that much money, it better be in the Caribbean.....on the beach....in a beautiful, airy villa....with a servant to do the cooking, cleaning and to serve me fruity little drinks....and Sam Elliott in the chaise right next to me! :D :lol:

hey opie
depending on where they live, that might be a good price...LOL

I know, I know, I WOULD NEVER pay that.

those are the payments where people real fast can't afford to live if one loses a job or some financial burden hits.

let's see, rent at 1/2 the price, means $1000 in the bank each month, so $12,000 in the bank each year. I would rather have less rent and a bank account..HA HA

Well as bad as 2000 a month sounds even here in poor ole Mississippi apartment rent starts at 500 a month for a 1 bedroom. To get a house you are going to pay anywhere from 500 for a really bad house in a horrible neighborhood) to 2000 for a decent house. The further away you get from the city rent goes down. But most people don't want to make the long drives.

I had friends who were paying that to live in Manhattan right after we got out of college. I was speechless when they told me. That was the late 80s. My mortgage is less than half that!

I would only pay that for a house we bought not renting. That sounds like a lot of $. We bought our house this summer and I love having a place to call my own..no more rent..yes mortage but its OURS!
