non-poor homeowners have snow blowers or tractors with plows.
>JUST RENT BRO
The apartment you are renting is earning your landlord income just by existing. Your landlord is probably using a home equity line of credit to avoid paying taxes on their wages. On top of this you are paying rent to cover any forseeable maintenance issues and property management fees. Imagine thinking that your landlord is actually stressing over these things lmfao
People that are paying more than 40% of their income over a 30 yr period in mortgage fees are going to be poor forever, yes. People who are actually taking out 30 year mortgages and leveraging it while paying off the balance in 10-20 years are coming out way ahead of any renter.
But hey, at least you don't have to shovel the sidewalk or deal with maintenance!
enjoy your "freedom' as a renter.
the ultimate redpill on rent vs own is thinking about your life when you finally retire. the average person collects about $1500/month on social security. do you want to be spending $1000/month of that $1500/month on rent until the day you die? property taxes and upkeep (unless you absolutely neglected your home for the last 10-30 years) are nothing compared to paying rent in perpetuity.
I have a rent stabilized apartment.
Everyone who moves into my building pays 2200. I pay 1200. My rent can't go up more than 2%. If there is hyperinflation of the US dollar, this will only benefit me.
My landlord is responsible for heating, water, fixing things, etc. I would be a moron to buy a home. A hurricane could come and destroy housing values at any time in the next 20 years before I finish paying my shit off. I'd rather just buy a house in some shithole and move there when I'm bored and old and tired of snorting ketamine on rooftops.
Also do you REALLY think Social Security will be around when we're old?
Fuck that. Besides housing, Social security is the most bloating boomer ponzi scheme of them all. We will get NONE of that. I'm going to go live in a fucking Elon Musk Cybertruck RV and travel around. You're just going to sit in a wood McMansion thinking you did something with your life to make yourself "safe," when really you've just worked your whole life and built yourself a tomb to die in.
Printer will just keep going BRRRR forever bro. Social security is not going away.
The US dollar is lead backed. If you say 1 USD is not worth 1 USD they’ll ducking kill you. See Iraq, North Korea, Libya, Iran etc.
How do people still not get this?
I don’t have enough money to buy a house you stupid faggot what a pointless thread
Don’t waste your time. This board is full of degenerate crypto gambling NEETs.
The thought that real people own stocks, bonds, real estate, crypto, cash, small businesses and metals is totally beyond them.
This board is like 98% broke retards, 1% crypto millionaires and 1% real people with actual lives and healthy balanced portfolios.
What happens if a bunch of niggers move into the neighbourhood and it turns to shit? You're sitting with the least liquid investment in existence.
Don’t buy a house in urban Jew and nigger infested shitholes.
Niggers will invade everywhere eventually but move somewhere where you have enough time to build equity and get out before the brown tide arrives.
