Like think about it guys the guy who makes bread NEEDS flour so why doesn't the uhhh *rips a huge bong hit* flour maker give it to him and he gets bread from the baker. It's like beneficial. Or so I've heard.

Panfilo posted:My in laws were too brown and immigrant to be put in the baby boomer category. I don't know any Millennials in urban areas that are taking buses hours away to go pick tomatoes or grapes or clean suburban moms' toilets. And they came to the US right smack during the recession of the eighties so those magical factory jobs weren't easy to come by for them either. No one was making enough to buy a drat house pushing a broom, "brown and immigrant" (your words) or not. at any point

gently caress the ROW posted:the US has the highest corporate tax rate in the world so you can remmeber to thank the democrats when u complain that you have to work at a multinational lmao corporations are really smart they left tax rates alone and just allow truck sized loopholes to exist where they can basically pay no taxes on anything so even though their tax rate is 40% their effective tax rate is like loving 5%

It is certainly not normal by any standard, but we've been working out the details of the concept since we were in high-school. The biggest test of friendship can be seen when you try to live together with people on a regular basis, we're doing a run of living in a less dedicated format in a rental in bullhead possibly before we commit to the idea fully. If it works, hooray, if not we figure out our own poo poo some other way. We got the land for under 5k back during the housing collapse so it's not a bfd now that we could resale for 20k pretty easily.

I'm not being discouraging at all but of course if it doesn't work, you won't just "figure our own poo poo some other way" you will be involved a lawsuit(s). Hopefully though, it was a good plan. I would never do this. Sole ownership of your own property should always be the goal (something millenials never understand because of free apps)

You make life sound like the gayest possible coming of age tale. Which it very may well be for you. The housing partnership trust is a loving garbage idea. Get the house and then flip if you have to get a house with your ten friends.

Certainly after a few years we would expand outward, essentially buying up more properties around us and build individual homes if we want, but that isn't going to happen in a short time period unless we're really making a lot more money.

It wasn't "so easy a caveman could do it" by any stretch. I really feel like it boils down to priorities. They sacrificed a great deal to give their kids a stable home. But that was because they made home ownership a priority. My sister in law, close to the Millennial age range, made the same priority and had a house when most people her age were too busy taking pictures of food with their DSLRs.

My roommmate and I just moved out to separate places and he wants to "figure out how to split" a $100 item we bought for the house upon move in and went 50/50 for, despite the fact that i literally furnished the entire house (couch, dining table, tv, vacuum cleaner, kitchen poo poo, etc, which he spent countless hours on and in front of), never charged him a dime for any of it, then when we moved out i obviously had to spend money on a mover to move all my poo poo to a new place. he makes twice as much money as me too, well into six figures  this guy has been a good friend for like ten years too, basically never underestimate how utterly petty people can be when it comes to small matters of money, let alone huge ones.

As soon as people, in the USA, understand that everyone is out there for "themselves", the quicker they will learn to integrate into our society. As loving horrible as that sentence is, it's the harsh, horrible reality.

this is a brutal truth but it takes 10 years of good work to be able to afford a home so before that maybe you should focus more on being good instead of sucking & buying the latest phone

It lets us buy things with trust funding instead of having to hash out every purchase on the legal sharing of the property. I do well understand that it may not work out, but for the most part I trust my friends, we've been through a lot and I see no reason for strife between us. I would love to own my own house and be on my own, but I just don't see a fiscally responsible way to do so and maintain my personal interests, even if I did get 2 lovely jobs to pay for it.

VendaGoat posted:Honest question. What's your age? I'll be 26 this year, I spent every year after highschool at community college to save my parents money since they insisted I be college educated, I didn't want to join the military since it royally hosed the life of my best friend and they don't get much from the government but it is paying his way through HVAC certification school. I was initially going to be a psychology student, but instead I decided to go for a business admin degree since I figured the only way I would make a living in psych is going for a MD or PHd in a long winded 12 year process that I wasn't interested in making my parents pay for. In the meantime I've been day trading on the market since I was 16 with a base capital of 1,000 dollars I saved selling soda and candy from a backpack in school during the big sugar ban they had for a while. I made a good coup from Disney shares, then another at the Citi Group being 3 bucks a share, but the market has been pretty stable so I've sat on my funds for a while looking for something better to invest in with a good return. currently looking at the RFID chip market, it promises good things.

Can I officially disagree with the age range represented by the term millennial? It really feels as though it's a lazy catchall in the current form, the older crowd among us experienced a vastly different world growing up than the younger, by leaps and bounds, really.

The scary part about this generation having to rely on the older generation's wealth and good fortune because of crippling school debt, the hollowing out of well paying secure middle class jobs, and explosive housing cost rises, is that the generation after them is going to have much less of a familial cushion to fall back on. There is going to be a huge slide into poverty for a large portion of the country, and there doesn't seem to be anything anyone can do about it so they just get angry and vote Trump or Bernie I guess.
