It's stunning how many people seem to forget that there are other countries on the planet that use dollars and weren't involved in Vietnam. No, I'm not making an assumption. The person who posted this is Canadian.

Y'all really need to take a step back and reflect a little bit.

Didn't work for me... in my 1972 bank job interview I was told, "I'd hire you if you were a man, but you're not. If I hired you, you'd just get pregnant and leave." It wasn't against the law for him to say all that.

And for what it's worth I didn't buy a home - a small one-bed flat - until I was in my 40s. Cost me so much I couldn't afford proper furniture. Yes, my current house is worth a lot more than what I paid for it (mainly because I bought a wreck), but so is any other house I could afford if I sold it.
