Probably the same reason I didn't - waited too long, and missed the window of affordability.

[-] SendMePhotos@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

It was a quick window that's for sure.

I knew I should have bought that house when I was 3

For years we all heard how renting is sooooooooo much better cuz u don't have to fix anything. Now those ppl are learning why home ownership can be advantageous.

I feel for gen z but half of millennials were laughing all these years now have shocked Pikachu face and own nothing except mtg cards and Funko pops.

Who in the hell ever said renting was better? Since the advent of money it has been a losing proposition to continuously pay for something you won't own. The only people pushing for renting over owning are the landlords.

I mean, if you search online you can find articles that talk about the pros of renting. I'm assuming those same points have been said before.

Of the renting units were provided by the government as a non-profit, renting would actually have made sense.

But now instead, it's just because you cannot afford the upfront capital.

The only people who ever have been laughing have been the boomers at millennials' expense.

Who told you that? Was it your landlord? Millennial here. I've never heard that my entire life.

Right because they could have afforded a house 10 years ago...
