they just bullying us at this point

The younger half of millennials only, not the older ones.

Goes to show, housing has been expensive for decades

I miss the early 2010s...

Millennials first turn 18 in the year 2000. You think anyone was complaining about the economy during the late 90s era? I'm a Zillennial but I know this because all the reddit post of Millennials and Late gen Xers saying a good chunk of teens had jobs and cars during the 90s

Me and my sister are living experiments of what you mentioned because our paths diverged, and we are both in our early 30s. As soon as I got my undergraduate degree, I started working at an entry level bank job. I lost faith in the system and never considered going for any post graduate degree knowing employers don't care and will not pay you much more for it. Fortunately, I had some inheritance so I was debt free and had no student loans. My sister on the other hand wanted to work at a hospital and needed to go for more years of school. I still lived at home but started working full time much earlier than my sister. My sister currently has a 6-figure job but because she lives out of state has to pay rent, she also accumulated $150k in student loans. I on the other hand was able to save and now have around $300k in liquid savings. Living at home really helps accumulate wealth. The family house was paid off before I was born so it's just maintenance and property taxes my family has to pay for. I feel currently I am at a wealth trap; I have enough savings for a good down payment for my own place but my current salary is barely enough to pay for a mortgage. Right now I am maximizing high savings rates and getting a steady good return on my savings. The monthly interest I get is around the same amount I get from a paycheck so it really helps cover my expenses and continue saving. A mortgage would throw off the extra stream of income I am getting from the interest if I decided to use some of my savings to buy a place.

@@jon6309 I am in a similar situation, although I am just getting out of college and started entry level job. I am probably not moving out until I get married. Meanwhile save save and invest all I can.

​@jon6309 Keep living in that family home and make sure you can pass it down once more. My grandparents made the mistake of giving up their house before it was paid off and our family hasn't exactly prospered ever since. A home would be a huge boon now

@@WeTube-mf1it unfortunately I don’t plan to have children and so does my sister. The properties owned by my family if passed down accordingly is basically a big cushion for retirement once I get old. I don’t need a big home in an upscale neighborhood, a modest townhome would do just fine and whatever money is left over can be used to invest in high yield funds for passive income!

I am 33 and come from a somewhat wealthy family but apparently my job in finance is not enough to even match the standard of living of my parents. My father never worked when we were born and owned several properties. Luckily for me, there are two residential homes my parents own. Since my father passed away my Mom decided that one house will go to me and the other to my sister. I don't really get along with my sister and she is not very good with money so I don't trust her so it really works out. If there was only one house I don't think I would be able to live under the same roof as my sister and would just cash out.

@@jon6309 this statement right here, I am 33 and come from a somewhat wealthy family but apparently my job in finance is not enough to even match the standard of living of my parents, says a lot about the current situation. The current situation is that incomes have never increased to match the standard of living as it is today. They have stayed behind and this is the reason why we are in the situation that we are in.

@@writingroombeachcourt7837 I feel really trapped with my situation. Living with my Mom has really helped me accumulate a lot of savings and avoid debt. Banks don’t really pay that much and even with job hopping at best you will get 20% more for the new job which is not life changing at all after taxes. Right now I am very conservative with my savings and I’m really taking advantage of the high interest rates offered for deposits. Currently I earn around half my monthly net pay check in interest so it’s a really good extra stream of income at the moment. I could afford to put a good down payment for my own place but it would reduce my savings substantially and I would lose a lot of the interest income I am currently enjoying. Also my salary from my job is barely enough to keep up with the mortgage payments and other living expenses. My sister works at a hospital and earns substantially more money than me but she told me she wishes to have the same savings as me but can’t because she has $150k in student loans outstanding. She also started working at the hospital in 2021 which was the worst time for medical professionals going through burnout. She actually doesn’t like her job and wants to quit but can’t because she still has student loans and needs the money to pay it off. Her plan is to aggressively pay off her student loans so she can go back to school for law.

Not at all,

Doesn’t matter the path you take at least if you make it to your destination that’s enough

Hell yeah brother keep the money in the family i will inherit a house and many money that i gave in rent since the 20+ years i have been paying rent to my mother and one day she will need my help once she gets sick and i will be there for her. There is so much stigma in the West to go be some isolated independant loner in some city instead of staying with your family like everywhere else in the world.

Biden’s record inflation destroys lives.

They paid that $45 monthly rent based off .80 cent per hour pay. Looks like the struggles the same. I’ve noticed Latino and the Asian(Mainly Chinese, Korean and Philippino) communities living 3-5 out of 2 bedroom apts to counter the incline. They save money for a few years then move out, usually with a girlfriend, once they’ve gotten enough raises at their regular jobs to be able to afford 2 person household living. When I worked at the Atlanta airport I noticed the difference in how each culture lived. I’ve lived with a roommate for the past 18 years. I almost had a good career girlfriend 6 years ago, but she didn’t want to have a kid. :(
