People in San Francisco seriously underestimate how good of a salary $75-85k/yr is in the Midwest. We have grads making $80k where you can buy a nice three-bedroom home for $175k. Your mortgage is $600/month, which leaves over $6k/month before taxes.

Might want to tweak those numbers a bit.... Start by taking the 80 and turning it into 50 after taxes. Then, add taxes and insurance to your mortgage and its almost 3X as much. (AND, I don't disagree with the point you were making.)

Hence the reason I specifically called out "before taxes" :)

"before taxes" is a fantasy world that no one lives in.

... so you deduct taxes from that and it becomes after taxes
