    Correct me if I’m wrong, but is that ~$800 per week? Fucking oof; barely a chance in hell to save up for a place of your own at that rate.

      That’s about the going rate for a decent place within the catchment of a good high school. We had to go from four bedrooms to three to find something we could afford.

      And yes, despite being a professional couple with two above-average incomes, we are not making much headway in saving for a house.
