How do Doctors and Lawyers and jobs that make about 100,000 a year manage to own homes that cost like 1mil?
Also how do they manage to own a car? Thats another like 30k

They take in loans, and they pay it off over like 30 years

as for a car? They do the same thing but for a lesser price


Not spoiled,well taken care of

They make payments like the rest of us, they can just make higher payments.

I would say that's the low end of their pay scale and they're not really worried about job security.


Earl s
they get loans

Its not that hard if they're smart about it. Usually ones with houses like that make more. Like plastic surgeons and big-time attorneys for celebs and stuff.

If you think about it, their job might not be their only source of income. They might be engaged in other investments that give them a good return. It could also be that their wife is doing good herself.

Lots of possibilities..

If they are doctors and lawyers they are making more than 100,000 a year. Alot of these people will invest their money in stocks and bonds and are good at saving their money. Chances are they have a good job that pays well and they are able to afford a mortgage that goes along with it. If they are married and their spouse also makes money that just doubles the amount they can spend on a mortgage. Good credit is the key to being able to live in a million dollar home..

Are you sure the homes are 1 million dollars or more like $350,000 to $500,000... This would make more sense if one spouse was making at least $250,000 a year to cover a mortgage for a nice home.

They dont pay it all in one go they have to pay it monthly

so if they earned 100,000 a year like 50,000 of it goes to their house and other debts

They aren't crooked but doctors and lawyers generally make more than 100k unless they aren't that great. Lawyers can easily make 200+k a year. That is how they can afford those homes because they get mortgages just like us. They usually have good credit also which means lower interest rates on their mortgages.

They have an equally high debt.

a; they save and invest. They don't put their $ into CDs but
instead, into small biz's that return 35-250% per year.

b; they get promotions quickly.

c; they negotiate for good deals; like arms followed by
fixed rate loans of 5%. They read EVERYTHING and they
ask a LOT of questions which make some people upset.

Many doctors also earn 250k a year by their 3-5th year.

Anyone (regardless of their profession) who earns only $100,000 a year would not be able to afford a home that costs a million or more.

Most good doctors and lawyers earn considerably more than that. They may also have a spouse who's similarly professionally employed.

Another possibility is that they've owned the same home for many years, since before the real estate boom of the 1980s.


ARMY*WIFE[brody on board]
haha...docs make alot more than 100k...ALOT more.


my father is a colonel in the army and makes about 200,000 a year, he has a DOCTORATE, but he is not a MD.
