By the way a $500,000 house is a dump in many west coast cities. Complete fixer or tear down. It’s also a very modest purchase price on $200k+ per year.
The issue isn't 200-300k a year ... The issue is living paycheck to paycheck beyond your means without an emergency fund ... I know of people making lowly sums that make wiser use of their income within their means.
