80s babies hate boomers too. if anything we were done the worst by previous generations, because everything changed in our lifetime. We were taught and prepared for one type of american life then the price of everything got ridiculous. College went from some shyt your could pay with a summer job, to a mortgage.

I recognize a home owner when I see one.. dude ain't in the struggle anymore he can't relate. Long time home owners and landlords. They don't have empathy or the same perspective. . It's a dog eat dog world. Capitalism ruins people.. but given the opportunities here a lot of you bros would be exactly the same way. If you had homes you'd be trying to flip them for their worth and equity. If you had rentals you wouldn't be taking rent below market value. Capitalism incentivizes greed and makes us rationalize it.

You’re ignoring the fact that we literally weren’t old enough to own homes during the periods y’all talking about. Cognitive dissonance isn’t serving you on this topic.

Breh I didn't say I was for or against. I just said I recognize the other perspective and most of wouldn't be any different if we were landlords. my statement was more about the ills of capitalism and how it incentivizes us to disregard each other's needs over business needs. All that shyt you talking is more about your misunderstanding than anything else

House prices reflect desirability of an area. There are plenty of places that are affordable in America they are just not gonna be downtown Miami and 2000sqft.

Take this Brooklyn listing for example

2071 Haring St, Brooklyn, NY 11229 | realtor.com®

2071 Haring St, Brooklyn, NY 11229 is for sale. View 13 photos of this 2 bed, 2 bath, 1830 sqft. single family home with a list price of $1400000.

You couldn't pay people to live there 20yrs ago but now its worth over a million.

This isn't boomer babble it's just saying that some people got extremely lucky to be early adopters in areas that became desirable. People want to hop right into a highly desirable area and are shocked to find out that having thousands of people wanting to do the same thing drives the prices up. It is disingenuous to say if only I had the money I would've bought in X location while it was cheap because hindsight is 20/20. It was cheap for a reason at the time.

Even if we disallowed investors and only allowed primary residences there is always going to be someone willing to pay more money than you to live in the spot that you want if it is a coveted area.

This is not to undermine the supply issue of housing which is due to archaic zoning laws in most cities, which disallow multifamily units from being constructed. This probably won't decrease surrounding area prices but can greatly slow down the increase.

Post all day on the Coli whining about "boomers" instead taking accountability for your own miserable lives brehs

 

[Ghost Utmost]

I'm up there as far as age.

Y'all younger Brehs have to remember that dudes like me been on here since 2001 (SOHH and other boards inclusive)

Y'all do know that we are Gen X. Boomers are the generation before. My mother who is about to be 80 next year. She's the Boomer demo.

Anyways.

You have the ideal. How it SHOULD be if things were fair.

And

you have the actual. The situation on the ground at the moment.

I agree that things are unfair and it sucks for those who get victimized.

But the world where things are fair is still imaginary at this point.

You're gonna HAVE to deal with the real until the situation changes.

Real estate is an example of this. If everyone who has dough in this crazy world wants to live in NYC.. the people who have less money than those global ballers.. they gonna have to figure out a different plan. Cause the money will always talk. In every language.

Be mad that this is unfair, but plan accordingly young Brehs.
