Owning a second home is an appealing prospect for many but comes with significant financial implications. A Reddit user shares their dilemma about purchasing a $3 million beach house while already owning a primary residence valued at $4-$5 million. Despite a high income, this investment could require sacrifices in lifestyle choices, such as travel, and complicate their retirement strategy. It's essential to evaluate the opportunity costs and speak with a financial advisor to ensure this expense aligns with their long-term financial goals.
Such is the dilemma this Reddit poster is facing. Here, we have a 50-year-old who enjoys traveling with their family.
Not only might the expense of that home get in the way of other things they enjoy, like travel, but it could end up impacting their retirement plans.
