$30,000 a year!

[SPJ]

I just figured out I pay $30,000 a year for my mortgage, property tax on the house and the insurance on the house.

No wonder I'm always broke!

Well, we don't own a house for a reason.

I have it figured I'm gonna pay out about 35-40k a year on the house and I paid in 30k in taxes last year too! Ugh!!!

Well, you can pay a mortgage, and eventually own a house. Or you can pay rent, which may cost less, but you never have anything to show for it. At least with paying a mortgage you will have a chance to get some of the money back if you decide to sell.

Yours too, huh?

I lived home all through college - it was great just getting to save up money.

He told me I had to pay rent there or get my own place and pay rent... I figured as long as I was paying the money might as well have my own place... and I could get a Ball Python to boot.
