We're in that range, but my salary is 3.5x more than my wife's currently. And we have 4 cars total, and want to get a few more lol. Definitely not the condo life.

She's from San Diego so wants to go back, but goddamn the cost of living compared to where we are now. Our current house would be $1.5-$1.6m in San Diego or LA.
