        I don’t have enough money to live on the moon, so I don’t live on the moon.

        Shocking.

          I don’t even know what point you’re trying to make. The person purchased a starter house at a pricepoint they were approved for. Maybe they don’t want a 40 minute commute to Seattle. Why are so up in arms about somebody buying a house? They used to hand them out practically for free in the 1940s and 50s.

            I’m not up in arms about him buying a house. I’m providing him info that suggests he make better financial choices since he is claiming he is nearly underwater.

            A $300k cash injection and significantly lower mortgage would most assuredly help with that.
