Because I have to change. I have to be a different person than I've been for something on the order of the last two decades. As hard as it is to make incremental changes, I'm a fan of ripping the bandage off quickly. And my Pugs of War is one of the casualties of life.

I look at Joe Sherlock's excellent View Through the Windshield and see how it's done: interesting aggregation with intelligent comments done with regularity.

Hereâs a simple formula to calculate the amount of income youâll need to purchase a home: Target mortgage payment + consumer debts Ã· .36 = Gross monthly income needed to qualify. Most lenders limit your debt-to-income ratio (how much of your monthly income pays debt) to between 36 percent and 45 percent.or every dollar of debt, you will need double that in income. So if you have a $300 car payment, youâll need at least $600 per month or more in income to offset that debt. Debt erodes income, and less income translates to less purchasing power.
