Is this situation so uncommon? Almost everyone who lives in a house in California, for example, is living primarily off the unrealized gains on their home equity. Very few have the wage income to qualify for a mortgage on what their lifestyle is worth now.
California contains a lot of houses!

- closeparen 5mo agoIllustratively, living in the house is worth about $15,000/month and everything else combined is maybe $2,000.
