As for the 7-year itch, **** we've only been married for 3 years now. Damn, I'm screwed!

I'll be 24 on Saturday but I feel like I'm either 54 or 14 most of the time.

25, single, struggling to make my bills sometimes. I have a cat, and I too travel pretty much weekly for work. *sigh*

I'm 22, been with my g/f for 5 years and I plan to marry her eventually. Going to college for video game/simulation programming and design. I'm hoping this was a smart field to get into, it is growing exponentially. My main focus is 3d modeling so that I'm not limited to games or simulations.

I still live at home, which pisses me off. With the housing market what it is here in MI there is no point in buying a place when I'm moving as soon as I'm done with college in a year or so. I thought about an apartment, but I would rather just save my money while I can.

what's the price of an average one bedroom apartment in MI? I'm paying $1300 at the moment in the NYC burbs. But I'd rather not live at home.

What's worse is the GF wants to move to Manhattan. I told her she's smoking some good crack. Too much "Sex in the City" watching.

Geez, I assumed it was bad, but had no idea it was that bad. I built a new 2400 sq ft brick front house, 30x60 shop on 16 acres (acreage size is approximately the size of the entire island the statue of liberty is on) in 2001 for $140,000 total. My whole mortgage, taxes and insurance on a 15 year loan is about $1600/mo. We are paying extra and will have it paid off in five years.

I hate you but then again I like living in New York. BTW $1300 is cheap for these parts which is why I do not want to move to Manhattan and be paying ~$2000/month for something smaller. And in one year I get to start paying back my college and MS degree loans...
