Not true. Some cannot be approved for even the smallest mortgage. And as
the amounts financed gets larger, so do the income requirements.

We will have our house paid off in 8 more years. How about you Glenn?

You maybe barking up the wrong tree with me Jim.

No need to get excited, I was just pointing out that anyone can have a big
house if you make a modest income. That doesn't impress me, it's the people
who drive a 5 year old car that live in a 1500 square foot house that have a
million in the bank. I know more people driving $40,000 cars that can
barely afford the lease, or the people with 35 footers who sit at the dock
because they can't afford the gas. So, the size of your house is a
meaningless measurement of your status.
