Meanwhile the fags that give this advice keep buying real estate. I pray they all get fucked and die screaming.

Having fat ass Caleb Hammer on JRE was a clear psyop. Another glowie grifter promoting renting on a massive scale.

pretty sure you already had posted this here, Ben.
also, usually the math is great for buyers when it's bad for owners

Old boomers that retired early literally did the opposite of his advice.

>hey schlomo, nobody wants to buy my condo in New Hampshire! I need you to make a 4chan thread so I can dump my bags
I'll buy a house when I'm ready thanks.

>ben felix video on /biz/ wtf
>an extremely verbose "both sides" video backed by studies with very good analogies, comparisons and conclusions
>posted on /biz/, but with a clearly bait comment
>all thread comments are either schizos, shitty memes or people that didn't watch the video
>posted within 6 hours of video release
what is even the point of posting this video here, is that an attempt to crowdsource a review
this board clearly repels all three digit IQ people (except me) and cannot be salvaged

Nobody watches long videos anymore, just get the AI summary and skim through that.

I'm not watching all the garbage that gets posted here. Blame the OP for that not us.

If I knew I was going to retire early, I probably wouldn't have bought a house in 2021. The value going up is nice but the property taxes, insurance, and maintenance are a pain in my ass for something I only stay at like 4 weeks out of the year.

surely over the period of ones lifetime there cannot be a period when real estate can be acquired at a discount to other asset classes

You can choose between:
>a rent that will go up every year, sometimes above inflation, literally forever
>a mortgage that someday will drop to zero

Ben Felix says index funds are better than bitcoin

Ben Felix doesn't know they buying is better if you mortgage with 5%

Houses are a money pit, and too much fucking work to maintain. I would rather rent an apartment, except I like growing fruit trees and keeping chickens so I basically have to own a house.

That's nothing, it's lower than the stupid deposit when you're starting a lease.

No they aren't
