So wtf is your buddy doing with the remaining $4700? If he nets $6000? Rent, Audi to pull bitches to his basement suite is only like $2500 tops with insurance and gas. He still has $3500 a month to eat at Cactus club or save for DP. That's at least $40k a year.

$1,300 = Rent for a one bedroom basement suite right now (rent is low as he's been there for awhile)

5% down on a $500,000 principle residence is $25,000, so he would need to save $1,000 a month for 25 months and he would have the down payment. So pretty much, if he didn't have his car payment, he would have been there.

If he marries his gf, then his household income would go up by $50,000 (~what his gf makes a year)
