Pretty obvious debt is the solution. I can start to see how this is getting dangerous here in Canada. People at that income should not be spending that on a mortgage period. Just a totally dangerous situation.
Even with a $450k mortgage, I wonder how families aren't house poor with a gross household income of $100k.
