Some of my personal favorites. . . . . .
"Now, don't go buying a house that's a tiny mansion while the rest of us live poor."
Now, I'm not one to brag about my home because I have yet to have one of my own. I plan on our home being nicely appointed. I'm not sorry my husband and I enjoy the finer things in life. Now, we won't go in debt to enjoy them and we're in no rush to enjoy them. If walking into my home, makes you feel a certain way...I'm sorry, I guess??!! We'll buy whatever home we see fit and what fits our needs.
"I don't see why you're packing already."
Oh, that's because we can. Want to help?
"Oh I thought you were looking in the $110 to $150k range, since that seems most suitable for you two."
Wow! Clearly, you are overly concerned with our finances. Thanks but we're just fine.
"That's the house you're looking at?"
Now the bitch in me just wants to remark back with something snotty, but I don't.
It's ok, home buying isn't for everyone and everyone shouldn't do it. If you don't need a home yet, don't buy one. We didn't need one for almost 5 yrs, so we saved our pennies so we could start higher above the average first time home. That was our preference.
You just can't please everyone and those who have negative things to say, you won't bring us down. We're too high in the sky and enjoying every minute of it.
