Not buy a house, inherit a house from our boomer parents.

Boomer parents: emotionally abuses you for your entire childhood/teenhood

Me: Has severe depression

Boomer parents: "WHY ARE YOU SO LAZY AND UNGRATEFUL, USELESS EATER, BURDEN ON SOCIETY" then proceeds to threaten to leave me out of the will.

Funny thing is, she also threatens to leave my older brother out of the will. Basically she tries to make us hate each other, and we do hate each other. My entire family is dysfunctional. They are all conservatives, racists, LGBT+ phobic, has the toxic masculinity mentality, ableist af. They think anyone with a slight disability deserves to get executed because its "a waste of resources". This is why I dislike my ancestral homeland, it reminds me of hatred and intolerance.

Edit: Technically they aren't boomers, but I'll still call them boomers because they share that same boomer mindset.

Bad take. In my situation it went from us paying $1900 in rent to paying $4500 in mortgage.

Well you made a choice. Either you knew you could make the payments for the price range you bought into, or you didn't read the repayments figures on any of the documents the bank sent you and made a massive decision uninformed.

I pay 20% more for my mortgage than I did on my rent, but the house is also better, I can easily afford it, and I made that choice willingly and I'm happy with that arrangement.
