you DO own your own home in your country, right anon?
>>221895562Council in Ireland (government housing you rent) counts for this so it's around 30-40% that own t heir own
>>221895562what's the point of these stats? no one under 35 owns a home here
I have nothing and no one
>>221895562so eastern euros are much poorer than western euros but much more of them own their own homes
>>221895695In Poland, state owned apartments in commieblocks were selled out really cheaply (couple thousand dollars) or even less in 90s. Also, a lot of people live in house in suburbs, small town or rural areas
>>221895562I do. Most of my close friends also bought a house / apartment. I'm under 30
>>221895582a nation of rentoids...sad!>>221895732>be pole>come to iceland and work>rake in cash>move back to poland and buy a mansionpolish people CANNOT suffer
>>221895562No. I sold my apartment when I realized the monthly fee was higher than the average rent in a nearby town. Rather have the money than a crappy apartment that I don't even really own.
>>221895562I grew up in the balkans, I could have counted people who did not own fully paid off homes and land on my right hand.Now though its changing as the younger gens are either leaving or stuck in rentpods kinda mimmicing americans but like 20 years behind as the rent pods seem to be somewhat affordable.
>>221895562no new apartments cost 150k+ and houses 400k+
>>221895562Im from greece and bot one person from my age group that i know has bought a home. All of them are stuck doing 10 hour shifts to pay rent and get some coffee in the weekend. I tried to persuade them to get out of that shithole but they wouldnt listen.
>>221895758It's not 2010 anymore. Small mansion in Poland costs at least $1M
>>221895887And to be fair im in the same spot as them, i chose the wrong coubtry to immigrate to, but at least i have seen how 5 digits in my bank account look like as a no diploma semi NEET.
>>221895562Adjust for medistanis never leaving mom's house
>>221895562I live in an apartment owned by my sister. My mother lives in a house owned by her grandmother.
>>221895562Nah I rent a cheap apartment that I have lived in for about 10 years now. Lidl, a mall and pizzeria across the street. It's perfection.
I will never have a house and will always be a missed paycheck away from homelessness but NOOOOOOOO COMMUNISM LE BAD
Only good thing commies ever do is land redistribution and even then they have to be kicked out for it not to be immediately sucked up by the state afterwards
>>221895562When I graduated from college a long time ago, I got a small (like 5K IIRC) monetary gift from grandma (contingent on actually graduating), which went a long way toward paying down remaining student debt. I was so happy to be debt free that I resolved right then and there that short of medical emergency, I would never again take on any debt for any reason whatsoever, not to (((buy))) a car, not to (((buy))) a house, not to gain the right to live in a house, not even to maximize profitability. I have been living happily debt free for twenty years, and entirely on my own terms.
>>221895562Yes.
>>221896768Honestly same here.I am 22 right now, no student debt since I went the community college route but not even using my degree so it was a waste of time.Thinking of buying an RV and avoiding the rent jews entirely too, but from what I have seen that has its own issues with renting RV spots too so its just a pick your poison situation.I have saved up a lot more than nearly every one of my friends and travelled while doing it too.
>>221895562No reason to buy for me. My rent is €340/month and I have no plans on moving ever.
>>221897851how much do you make a month?
>>221897862Around €2780 after taxes.
lets be honest, all real estate is owned by the state, you're just leasing it
>>221897879Oh my god I would kill people for that ratio of rent to pay here. Plus you dont have our bullshit health insurance faggotry.
>>221897906It's just a 39m2 studio apartment but I don't need more space so for me it's fine. A lot of my coworkers think I'm nuts though because they all have 2-3x more space (and also pay accordingly) and claim they "go nuts" in small apartments.
>>221897937Bro thats at least 900 here even in the most bumfuck nowhere place.
>>221895562this. although most of my friends and I are in the 30-35 age bracket >>221895732
>>221895695No. The map isn't percentage of PEOPLE OWNING HOMES. It's percentage of people living in homes that are owned by someone who also lives in the home. If you still live in the house you grew up in that isn't even owned by your parents but your grandparents who still live there, it doesn't mean you own the house.Richer countries have less people living in owned houses because they can afford to move out and rent an apartment when they're young.
>>221899912True for some countries, not true for others.
I own mine with a mortgage
>>221895562I own nothing and I'm happy
>>221895926Ok, where would you've moved to? I spent a couple of weeks there due to work before COVID and while not being like the richmost continental countries, it didn't look that bad. Was the downturn that noticeable after brexit took place? Sometimes I watch some british youtubers talking about what have come of their country, and it remembered what happened to us during the worst part of the 2008 recession.
>>221901906Either france because their architecture and aesthetics lift my eternally depressed spirit, they are the light in the darkness, or scandinavia for the big salary and right to roam. I cant complain here though because I get job flexibility I dont think id get elsewhere.
>>221901997Job schedule flexibility*
>>221896768Don't you finf finding a new place stressful, I never bought a flat because I can afford a fully detached home. I have enouhg to buy a flat, but it's the last place where I want to live. I cant stand being surrounded in tight places
>>221902015I dont have money to buy shit bro so moving about is the least of my worries. UK is king of attached crammed houses.
