When we think about the "American Dream" buying a home is certainly a core element. At least that's what I've been told. However, far too often I find people getting tempted into buying a home that's way too big for their bank account because society says, "you should buy a house you can grow into." I can tell you first hand that is a dangerous statement. When your home (or your mortgage payment) is bigger than your bank account the risks can far out weight the benefits.
