Dear Edith: I had a question about money when buying a house. My fiance and I are planning on buying a house next year at the earliest (after we're married and all). We will only have his salary. We were told it's not possible to buy a house on his salary alone. I am planning on being a homemaker/stay-at-home mom so me working is not going to happen. Does that mean we'll never own a home? I know people that have bought a home without having two salaries so I don't understand. — D.W.
