Who actually wants to spend 1/3 of their paycheck on something every month and not own it?
1/3 income these days is if you're lucky
Biggest plusses people argue in favor is not having to maintain the property yourself and being able to move much more easily. If you are one of the people who would prefer to buy, I highly recommend you do so. Maintaining your own stuff is quite nice, as it lets you keep it up to the quality you desire.
Lmao this guy thinks landlords maintain the property.
Great, you can move more easily to another overpriced unmaintained property. You will own nothing and you will be happy about it.
It dawned on my that my wife and I pay 30k a year to live in our house. I made 65k last year, the most I've ever made and the amount I told myself in Highschool that if I could get a job making that I'd be set. Feels like I'm still bussing tables at fucking Texas Roadhouse.
For context, im in tech and she's in the arts. Combined we're at about 110k a year. Wild that that feels like just scraping by.
