Sticker debt and mortgages Forum

[Bronte]

For those of you who have taken out sticker debt or are planning to do so, what exactly do you plan to do when it comes time to look at purchasing a home? I'm assuming that you have 200K type debt. I'm especially curious about those who have that type of debt but are not going to be working in biglaw.

lol

Contrary to popular TLS opinion there are a lot of people in this boat--like myself for instance.

Yeah I don't see what's so funny about this. A lot of people don't get big law. LRAP or IBR should help.

I think the joke was that people in that boat are completely fucked and therefore unable to buy a home

So if you're in an area of the country where buying a home is equal to or cheaper than renting (which makes my NYC ass green with envy), then seems like you should be okay as long as you can get the down payment together, right?

More or less.

Your NYc ass should consider the suburbs
