Is it okay to break and scramble some eggs so you can afford that dream home?

Brent, I am so excited about this because sometimes in life things happen that make us have to make difficult decisions.

Not every decision we get to make is a nice easy one and I love that we get to weigh into those types of questions.

A matter of fact, I love that we can answer all your questions.

So right now we have the team out in the wings collecting your questions if you don't have your question and yet get it into the

chat because we want to load you up so that you can do money better. With that I'm

going to throw it over to you producer Ruby.

Awesome we've got a question from Halle to kick us off.

It says, we want to buy our dream house, but we'll have to get past 25% of our gross income

to do it.

Are we allowed to break the money guy housing rule if we're saving well over

25% for retirement? We want to treat this house as our abundance goal, like step

eight of the food and feel like we have the room in the budget

for it. So how would you think about this?

Well I think, Halle, at the onset, you said something I love, you are saving 25%.

And so you're already doing the thing

that you know you're supposed to be doing.

And so then the question is, for the dream home,

can we break the rule?

And I'm assuming the rule that we're gonna break

is the 25% of total housing costs

or 25% housing costs is greater than 25% of gross income.
