[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, I’d rather use that money to travel to different places and not be burdened with homeownership. Much of my family annd neighbors own second and third homes, and I hear about the upkeep, repairs, taxes, insurance, etc and so forth. [/quote]

The faux complaining and deprecation is trying not to make you feel bad about being on a lower rung. All this money, all these homes, such a burden. :roll: [/quote]

Maybe it's about families regressing to the mean economically...which involves being less well off than ancestors.  Nobody likes that.  French castle lady said I wouldn’t actually enjoy owning a medieval castle because the maintenance is too much much money.  I believe her because on DCUM, I'm getting ads for French and Italian castles that are available for the price of a big fancy house in Bethesda.  It's not a cope if you have a $3M castle but the roof's falling in, the septic system is failing, the plumbing 100 years old and springing pinhole leaks, and it has original electrical wiring.  There are no more peasants to command to help you in exchange for vanquishing neighborhood foes.[/quote]
