[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 1963 and 1964 parents are boomers. The 63 is more chill and laid back than the 64 but they had the leg up that boomers had of cheap housing, affordable college, etc and were able to easily build wealth which to me is the signifier of boomers.

WTF?  64 here.  Still paying student loans.  Bought my first house at 39.  I don't have any clue who you are referring to.[/quote]

Dunno what to tell you. My dad was bought a $40,000 house in 1988 when he was 25 years old. The mortgage was mere hundreds of dollars. He was able to do that consistently through the 90s. Obviously your circumstances were different. But my dad isn’t the outlier of his cohort. [/quote]

Where in the world did he buy a $40k house in '88?  Serious question.  I bought my first house not 3 yrs later, and it was 3x more.

Oklahoma City, OK LMAO which obviously is a pit but, they were available [/quote]

Eh, you can still find $40,000 houses in pits in this country. That's not a big deal if that's your cup of tea.https://www.zillow.com/chicago-il/under-50000/?utm_content=289220577|15937968417|dsa-101220890457|342757771360|&semQue=null&k_clickid=_kenshoo_clickid_&gclid=Cj0KCQjwntCVBhDdARIsAMEwACl9R1F8217gqjjiIYT9EoCOtgUHBapVfG7b1mL6Zpv_2KgjLHyzU9MaArYhEALw_wcB
