maybe those "educated" people who live above their means arent exactly as educated as they may seem.

But i understand what your saying, im just an advocate for saving as much as you can, so you arent paying SOO much in interest. id hate to look back after 15 years and add up that i paid 220k for my 120k home that is now worth 100-120k.. what could you do with 100k in15 years? Build a dynasty.
Well I was just literally meaning "educated", nothing at all to do with where you live or your own personal education level. I dont even have a college degree (I have the debt though). But the cost of living in some cities and I'm only assuming in educated cities (like Minneapolis) the rates are higher than necessary because the populas is generally educated. I would love to save that much. A friend of mine saved 14k over 3yrs, but bought a car with it.
