I'd rather live out in the boonies and make very little than live in the city and make a ton. Luckily, I can do both, but it comes at the cost of a 75 minute car ride twice a day. It's a good deal in the end.

I should have said "it's not an option for some and not the best choice for others". For me, I need the time more than the open space or the new house. To each his own!
