with all this talk about money or the lack of it, i remember being annoyed at the show House Hunters last night.
i seriously think i watch it to just torture myself. these people where looking at 4 bedrooms, 3 bathroom houses, for pennies. & they needed no work.
you know why, because there not in New York. in order to live in New York a house will cost you $800,000. & probably still need work.

Re: NWR: House Hunters
Just remember, because the cost of living is lower outside of NY, so are the salaries.........

Yes it is annoying but keep in mind that it is all relative and they do not make NY salaries.

Re: NWR: House Hunters
I know the salaries are lower in other parts of the Country but come on, not enough to justify the difference in house prices. It really is sickening. Houses that cost $1 mil around here don't even look like anything special. It's so sad.
