[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My guess is 2 big expenses -housing -student loans And lack of generational wealth. Granny didn’t leave a nest egg.[/quote] This. Most feds i know who are single live with a roommate to share expenses. Most also have student loans, plus car loans, and do not come from money - which is why they have student loans and car loans and a roommate. My DH and I bought a SFH far out where most dcum posters would refuse to live, in a not good school district, and it was our third house (first in the DC area) so we had equity to put down. No new feds are going out and buying a SFH or even a condo in this area without family help or a higher earning partner. After saving, and by sharing expenses with a roommate, usually people are able to buy something within about 10 years.[/quote]
