can afford to buy a house?

My wife and I were talking about this yesterday - seems like not many young people we know are making a decent living, and housing prices are still too inflated (our house has incresased in value over 25% from when we first bought it-we would not have been able to buy it if we were shopping today.)

How are you doing it - or are you doing it at all?

We have a modest 90 year old brick end of row house that is now in the over $80,000 range, which is actually ridiculous.
