Also lol at the thought of public service being an idiot idea but thaaaaaaat's goons! (It is an idiot idea, you're right It used to be the top 60% of intelligence of all Americans had a pretty easy time with "the american dream" with just the minimum required amount of work. The bottom 40%, as always, struggle, make bad decisions, and end up in a poverty cycle. As you can see with the squalor in housing projects, some people even manage to gently caress up having their entire life paid for. Since the Bush Recession things got a little harder.... Now only the top 50% still have an easy time because of growing competition in the workplace, but unfortunately that window shift cut out the swarms of internet averages who thought they were smart and now think it has all gone to poo poo because they can no longer be fuckups and still get by. The top 50% is still a lot of people, though, it's just not quiet as easy as it once was. Poor millennials.

I bought a house 4 years ago in an area where they were kicking out all the coloreds. It's now worth twice as much. I sold it in a day earlier this week. Going to use my $150k in equity to buy a clapped out house cash in a new colored frontier.

My house was a foreclosure, and the prior owners paid 225k for it and put in granite counter tops. Then I got it two years later for 149900 and the government also gave me 8k for free. Feels good man.

Lol if you don't recognize that all of life is fleeting, permanence is an illusory concept, and that every aspect of your existence will inevitably end. Living is a constant flux you homownerd.

thathonkey posted:Pls kill youreself I will right after I get this tat and put in my eyebrow ring and massive gauge thing in my ear because I have a job interview at the bank so I can get a job and buy a house but I will smoke a bowl before I go to the interview because I don't want to be all uptight for it. It isn't fair that baby boomers make it so i cant find a job and get a house, though.

I like the idea of a thread about home ownership and I think that this concept is one that GBS could achieve, but I don't think this thread is very good, sorry.
