[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sounds like anyone can be a homeowner even in expensive markets as long as you’re willing to give up everything else for 10 years of your youth. [/quote]

But most young people are pinching pennies and having a blast doing it. They're living in group houses and going to places with cheap drink specials. My roommates and I would cook together at home, go to BYOB house parties or maybe drink at home with friends then go out and buy 1 drink out. Going out to eat was a rare treat, and even then not expensive places. Vacations were driving to visit friends in other areas to party the same cheap way there. Maybe the occasional trip with a cheap hotel and 6 friends crammed into a room. We saved for 6 months to spend that $450 for that vacation lol. The problem is people who want to spend everything they have when they're 25 then get upset when they're 35 and don't want to dial back their standard of living to buy a home. You should have been dialing back when you were 18-30.[/quote]
