mr. mephistopheles posted:lol, prices are probably at least another year from peaking and the last peak was in 2006 before it started to decline so you're basically telling people to just wait another 7-8 years to buy a house that's life I guess? Or is it not cool to tell a willenial that life ain't fair? Our parents bought houses when they were 23. We buy houses when we turn 30. It's how it goes. E: also my parents' first home purchase was a tiny shitbox. By contrast, the first home I bought as an adult will be the last one I need to buy so long as I don't change cities.

Once you drive that house off the lot you lose like 20% of the resell value.

buying a house turns you into your own landlord, effectively rendering you the world's greatest douche

Well, when the last bubble popped I got to watch my home town poo poo itself as tons of people lost their jobs, their homes values went far below what they owed and no one was buying. They could not move to other areas where there were jobs for them because they had a house shaped anchor. For myself, I have moved 4 times within the last 2 years for new jobs, I prefer mobility and I will pay the rental premiums for that mobility.

The smartest move to make at age 22 is to tie yourself up for the next 30 years to a $100,000 loan and a woman who co-signs the loan and will absolutely never leave you

Millenials are babies that like dorm life - let's keep them there forever! http://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2015/11/coliving/414531/ quote:Coworking is probably a familiar concept at this point, but Evans wants to take his idea a step further. On Friday, on the top two floors of the building, he’s starting construction on a space he envisions as a dorm for Millennials, though he cringes at the word “dorm.” Commonspace, as he’s calling it, will feature 21 microunits, which each pack a tiny kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, and living space into 300-square-feet. The microunits surround shared common areas including a chef’s kitchen, a game room, and a TV room. Worried about the complicated social dynamics of so many Millennials in one living unit? Fear not, Evans and partner John Talarico are hiring a “social engineer” who will facilitate group events and maintain harmony among roommates.

lol u guys are stupid, buying a house is cool, it's not cool when you're manager at Wendy's but when you guys realize that maybe your philosophy degree can't really cut it in the world today you can work towards a job that makes real stacks and throw it on a house that you can afford.

mr. mephistopheles posted:good luck finding any desirable property in any city worth a poo poo that hasn't been snatched up by cash buyers and then rented for more than the mortgage cost "Cities worth a poo poo" are temporary places for anyone not playing with exiled warlord money. Oddly, when everyone at the same time realized how great it is to be within walking distance of authentic restaurants and a trendy gay disco, the polarity reversed and it became poo poo? Like, it as almost as if a good idea becomes a bad idea once it has jumped the shark?

quote:My partner and I have been together about eleven months. She has major depressive disorder, sees a therapist regularly and has been on a number of different anti-depressants. She suffers vaginismus, frequent UTIs, and frequent spotting and bleeding despite being on a hormonal birth control implant. She identifies as demisexual, and has told me that she is extremely uncomfortable having sex with someone for whom she cares, and that it was easier to do so when our relationship was less serious. It is easiest for her to be intimate only when she is disconcertingly inebriated, which makes me uncomfortable fr numerous reasons, especially her ability to consent; but that she has stopped binge drinking.
