thought consensus was wanting to own "property" was an internal prole tell and when you account for transaction costs, inflation, financing, etc. its very hard to make money

Most of my striver friends in the Bay Area RUN to buy residential real estate and proudly announce to everyone they know that they're looking for a house as soon as they have the $ for a down payment, even in the current market.

Xo is stuffed full of risk averse dweeb coastcucks who grind themselves to death earning money for partners who will never elevate them beyond their serf level

If I had followed traditional xo advice back in 2008 I would be bald, have 2x more student loan debt and barely keep my head above water working 70 hours a week, all while my wife cuckolds me with Jamaal.

It's all over the place here on real estate.

My perspective is that owning is a wash, but I get what I want and have a very safe investment.

Best case is if you don't care if you live in a shithole (Jews), either rent or buy a cheap place you aren't going to update.

Personally, I like the fact that I can invest in the features I want in my home and not have to ask permission to make changes...while still owning in a market that is increasing in value. My mortgage also is a fixed price, so I'll be effectively be paying half in 15 years than I do now. Market rents go up.

XO remains largely ignorant of everything except law firm culture and law school admissions, and the latter has significantly atrophied over the last five years.

XO's usual level of dialogue about politics, econ, sports (especially sports JFC), careers other than law, and real estate, is just barely above two drunk idiots sitting on adjacent barstools trying to bullshit each other. this place is heavily populated with risk-averse flame artist unhappy lawyers, unemployed loners, mentally ill people, and culturally isolated bitter minority dudes with borderline irrational views on society. LOL at taking this place's advice on anything seriously, let alone the utility or real estate.
