Reply #48: You'd Be Doing Damn Well Pretty Much Everywhere

[NashVegas]

Inside the city limits (proper) of the top 5-6 markets, you couldn't buy a big house with cash, but you'd be able to rent long enough to gather a huge down payment and get an affordable mortgage and sock away enough money per year to pay back the loan early, take care of your living expenses, and put money aside for a Very Nice, early retirement.

To most people, as long as you weren't stupid about how you spent your disposable income, you'd be *very* well off.
