Start saving money now. For the love of good, stop eating out. Last Friday we ate lunch out (pizza) and then dinner at In & Out Burger. Before I knew it we had spent $65 in one day just on crappy food. Then do the math... If we did that every day it's just under $2k a month... In fast food alone. (And it's bad for you.)

I don't need a house that large. I'm not in USA. I come from USSR and lived on a $5 a week in USSR times. I spend 200-300 / mo for eating out with my family, but it's not what saves the day to have a house / apartment that is JUST about USD 100k.
But I get your point. I have to sacrifice my life to have a home. No. And this is a whole point/ Housing should not be that expensive.
And yes, i am looking for 50k options in Italy when I get to the point of having proper resident papers.
