I had cheap rent for most of a decade and got serious about saving money for several years I left that place just in time to avoid becoming the stereotype depicted in this middling snl sketch: https://youtu.be/axfaPnFlfEg?si=iln1rh8xnLfThuhi

My mortgage in rural Ohio is under $600 because we refinanced right before the skyrocket. Its cool because now that we have finally paid of student loans, at 35 I can finally start saving. Good chance we will live in this house for the rest of our lives though. Which is fine because capitalism sucks and stuff is dumb

I just thought it was some thing that got played up and over exaggerated and did not occur to me that the person was for years gloating about a nice condo in Dallas in opulence like it’s a Manhattan penthouse or some thing. I just thought it was a gimmick that 3O and goons collectively leaned into but recent posts in the EV thread and now here made me realize they are just weirdly insecure about having money

pencilhands posted:It seems like youre “supposed” to have a house of some sort by my age but everyone I know who has one constantly bitches about how it takes up all of their time and money Unless you want to settle somewhere the best plan current year is to live in the cheapest place you can feel comfortable. Houses don’t have to be a bigger pain than a lovely landlord though. People just buy big houses, diy the gently caress out of them, and put a bunch of stupid poo poo in them that chews up their time and money. “Omg I spent all day washing windows vacuuming stairs and mowing my lawn! Besides I don’t have money to go out anyhow”. — Bought the biggest house they could afford because they deserve it.

Three Olives posted:It's funny how goons make fun of my lifestyle when by pretty much every marker of social and financial success and security as an adult I'm doing better than most, like, not limited to goons, like, American society in general. Goons are probably doing better than Americans in general but you still had your dad pay up your early years so you can “currently” be an independent big boy. So it’s not much of a flex.
