I have no problem with success. I have a problem with:
1. People who take out mortgages they can’t afford when times are tough
2. People who buy at the top of the market and complain when the market goes down - as if they have a right for the market to always go up
3. People who think a $2,000,000 house is an “Average Joe” house
In DC area, a two million dollar house isn’t necessarily a mansion. It might be a nice house, but it probably wouldn’t qualify as something to be envious about.
But that’s not the issue we should be concerned about.
