    Remind me when this guy’s 79 can’t work anymore and can’t afford rent on the shitty retirement they have and let’s see if they wish they had a fully paid off house by then 😂

      Not everyone has shitty retirement funds and if you make the choice to rent you need to set money aside as if you were paying for maintenance on a house with a mortgage equivalent to your rent to compensate not being able to sell later on, in many cases you’ll end up with more money in your pockets too.
