Where did I promote sleeping in the streets???

 

If you keep on renting your next step would be exactly there , so yes, this is what you were promoting (unknowingly?)

But you confirmed you currently own your place.

When and where did I say that??

 

Right here:

quote "Lifestyle and maintaining it seems more important to many than home ownership. Look at the horrendous travel issues at airports, the amounts of people travelling is nuts. Lots of money being spent. People are spending."

Man, your imagination is sure overactive. Renting leads to living on the street??   LOL  

Remember, nowhere is it written or said or promised that you have the right to own a home.

Yes, people are spending, on lifestyle versus trying to save for a down payment, that was the point of the comment. Sorry you were unable to comprehend that.

Remember, nowhere is it written or said or promised that you have the right to own a home.

1. Renting will put you out on the street.  Yes.  When you have rents going up to the point you are unable to afford a 50% raise and your landlord does a renoviction, where are you going to go?    Sorry you were unable to comprehend that.

2. And this is why I laughed at your suggestion that the airports are full of travellers who go on vacation instead of saving for a down payment.  But you have zero idea why the airports are busy and why people are travelling and what percentage of the travelers actually own a home. Sorry you were unable to comprehend that.

3. Yes, owning at least a piece of land should be a right.  Have you seen wildlife paying property tax on land? But you are so brainwashed that you accept being dispossessed and raped by your corrupt capitalist government. Sorry you were unable to comprehend that.

I am done with you at this point.  Done banging my head in the wall.

Sorry, I did not want to wake you up from your dreamland.

So, renters will be on the streets?? Are you awake?? Over 40% of people rent, even more in large cities around the world.LOL

Clearly you have not travelled. I have and can assure you that most travellers now are vacationers or people visiting. Business travel is waaaay down.

Wildlife paying property tax?? Did you fall asleep again and are having bad dreams???  LOL

"dispossessed and raped by your corrupt capitalist government." ? You are aware most rentals are privately owned buildings???  Government does not rape you for rent LOL

You don't have a $90,000 F350 diesel, a $1000 chainsaw, $200 to fill up or the energy just to get your own? I told ya a lot of people here have no financial sense! LOL

Most ads here are $150-$200 not dried or split and most buyers think a cord = almost enough to fill a pickup bed to the lip even if it's only 6ft long... Ford Ranger level to the box $200 listed all winter until the guy takes $100 as the snow melted and he doesn't need the weight....

My point exactly. Lifestyle over financial sense and security.
