I know I’m supposed to want it to keep going up as a wealth generator or whatever.

But like… I wouldn’t be able to afford the monthly payments if I bought my house right now and it’s scary. Also none of my friends are buying homes, none of them are even renting full places. Just like renting rooms.

So what are your feelings home owners of lemmy?

    And what was your rent?

      It was somewhere around 1500 USD per month. On top of that I had to pay for overpriced health insurance (required by my visa - additional few hundred dollars per month) and I had a huge loan I took to move to Australia (visa costs, moving my stuff across the world, car, etc.). In total I was paying around 2300 USD per month, and I still had to pay for utilities and food.
