Same situation as you here, 10y xp, free education, girlfriend SWE as well... We have a household income around 190k euro before tax, no kids.
The only reason why we could wish to earn more is to afford a nice flat in London, it makes you wonder who can really afford it.

Iām from southern Poland, flats are dirty cheap here. I bought one for 35k euro 4 years ago.
However, we are about to become expats in one month so I kind of think of selling now (few reasons, government taxes, house prices went up). I think that renting is way better in a long run (unless you plan to live in one city for more than 10+ years). As for buying, maybe some small house in my 50s in some less populated area like mountains or forest :)
