>>532381004>really good financesNow look up average APR on a mortgage and get back to me.
>>532381470I'm not denying you have it bad, even Trump said he is mandating high home prices and will keep making it worse. I'm just saying in Spain the government does even more, charges more taxes for more social services, regulates more, and we're bigger losers.

>>532381718>I'm not denying you have it badThe point is with an average APR you cannot buy a house on a sole income with under 165k a year income. That's just to QUALIFY.You need to be making around 200k to really have a shot of leading a good life. But once you reach those income levels the taxes are nearly as fucking retarded as Europe. 60k goes right to Uncle Sam.How many people do you know in their 20s making 200k? >fucking none.And that's the age group that is supposed to be settling down and pumping out (white) babies.

>>532382155is it okay if the cope is true? if so here's the first: high home prices are demonstrably and self admittedly mandated by governments, which is directly against free market

>>532382692Well, it is what it is. Jews are always inevitably going to do their thing. The one time someone stood up to them they ended up with entire cities burned to the ground, so...Ideally it shouldn't be like that. But also, ideally, if governments allowed it, homes would be a commodity, not a big problem to afford, let alone a big life changing investment.
>>532382342> ‘Merica That’s so American - everything is transactional, including familial relationships
>>532382408>high home prices are demonstrably and self admittedly mandated by governments, which is directly against free market>let's solve the issues of a free market (privatization) with more privatization Because those prices are set inevitably by the banks. And if they aren't decided entirely by the banks you get shit like Blackrock which grabs up land and homes and monopolizes them under the guise of multiple investment agencies. You can't fix capitalism with a free market because the point of capitalism is hoarding of capital and someone will always be able to hoard more than the others. Land and homes are also capital investments.
>>532375415While homes as an investment was a straight up evil system that never should have been allowed to begin with, you currently have millions upon millions of decent people who never chose this but was still forced into the system for any chance at starting families and attempt to live but a pale imitation of the boomer life arc. If we crash home prices it isn’t boomers who are going to suffer. Their homes are paid for. It’s the millenials and zoomers who are going to have their rates hiked by 15% as banks panic about not getting their moneys worth

These people are absolutely fucking up the economy which is why I’m glad trump ended their bullshit little home loan program.
>>532383316Did you know more than 500 dollars of your taxes annually go to Israel? Want to know how much of your taxes go to welfare and medicare each year? About 10 dollars each for those programs. And we've sunk to the point where we don't even want those few programs to help veterans that were tricked into turning into lunchmeat for zog.
>>532382991I do not want to get stressed due to the frustration of not being able to get most people to understand this. I will give you one last response in order to give you a proper explanation, and I hope you'll get it but I won't respond again regardless (if you understand and still disagree that's ok with me, I just hope you'll get my point).When I say high home prices are dictated by the government, I mean they are set by the government and not the market. So what I said is incompatible with what you said, yet you started your comment with "because", as if both things can be true. ???Anyway... Trump admitted he is mandating high home prices. If you still don't believe it even when he admits it, just look it up and you'll see how in order to build homes, permits and licenses are needed, and it can only be done in land that is designated for homes. They are mandating high prices by limiting supply. Homes could not be prohibitively expensive if they didn't do this, it's basic maths.You argue that the banks are greedy, and blackrock grabs all of them up. So we can't solve that with more privatization! We need the government to help! Ok but if the government is hurting us then removing that problem would be an improvement. Even if you think it's blackrock and the banks, it would still be one less factor making the problem worse.But it's not even actually blackrock and the banks, because they wouldn't be able to do that if the government was not limiting supply. They would lose money by trying, because people would just produce more homes as a result and their hoarded ones would just lose value.This is not only a mathematical fact, but also even if you don't understand that, you can still by common sense, just ask why they hoard homes but not other things people need such as cars and food. So there's clearly something going on. I hope you don't miss the point and respond with something really stupid. I won't respond to this thread again regardless.
>>532383024This is fucking retarded. A market based on robbery by dictating high prices on something that can be made more cheaply, by definition absolutely has to be abolished. For the same reason all robbery ideally should be abolished, but specially this as it makes most people poorer.The banks wouldn't hike rates on their mortgages in order to get more money to make up for it, that's not how it works and it's fucking retarded to think it does.
>>532383930I think you're confused because I wasn't even refuting you. Government and corporations are one and the same in America. Trump is part of the corporate oligarch and you're correct in assuming the government strong arms the prices in order to better themselves and their constituents. It's why insider trading goes unchecked and banks are bailed out whenever they ask. Trump wants America to go back to the gilded age and the monroe doctrine, where states in the western hemisphere did not have sovereignty and were treated like vessels ruled by fascist US backed regimes and our own government was essentially run by the mafia. Where I argued with you was your claim that a free market would fix it. In reality the concept of free market is why we're here now.

>>532384450ok my bad, sorry, this topic is really frustratingas to the free market. corporations can't strong arm prices. see how amazon has no option but to sell at a loss when a competitor is better. so getting government power, as in the ability to enforce what they want, out, would effectively fix the problems they create
>>532384641I knew Americans in uni where as soon as they turned 18 their parents kicked them out and they had to support themselves. They were studying via student loans Deep down they were broken, sad people (I guess everyone is in that open air Jewish race war prison)

I do ship at sprouts and whole foods, if I ate slop I would probsbly bring at 10k, which is not worth poisoning myself for
>>532384910I feel for you. I make a supposedly very good amount for spain and I'm still struggling. I don't buy luxuries at all.I will try to get a very high paying job by lying and taking normies for the retards they are. It may work. And then I'll still be robbed but get enough money from some chumps to make up for it. If that doesn't work and I'm still single in a while, I'll just leave this shithole. I hope everyone does and the government runs out of money to pay the boomer pensions.
>>532384910If I included more I'd get "avocado toast"-tier boomerposting
>>532384645>see how amazon has no option but to sell at a loss when a competitor is betterActually it's the reverse. There are some examples where Amazon has no choice but this is mostly in regards to sellers outside the west without regulations. Within the unchecked free market of the west Amazon forces sellers to make their prices cheaper on Amazon than on their own store fronts and they are able to do this because Amazon is mostly a monopoly in the digital marketplace. These businesses have to sell on Amazon in order to reach a wider consumer base and make more sales. When they do, part of their contract forces them to list their prices as cheaper on Amazon. In fact Amazon even makes it harder for people to find small business alternatives with biased search results as Amazon works closely with Google. Google ad partners will always try to redirect you to Amazon first instead of a seller's own webpage. Less traffic to those websites means they will eventually need to sell their goods on Amazon and the cycle continues.

>>532375192Mine are still alive. They've said I'll inherit the house after they're gone. But still, that won't be for another 10-20 years. My dad actually has enough money in savings to buy a house AND to retire comfortably, but he won't. I don't know why. He's at retirement age but still works because I think retirement is like admitting that you're in the last stage of your life. If I were him I wouldn't want to retire either. He'd have nothing to do at home. Just sit in the lounge room and watch some boomerslop show or youtube all day. I don't want him to leave all his money to me though. I want him to spend it and enjoy life as much as he can. I really hope he does that soon, but he's not the type of person to want to go out and spend money. However he has talked about taking my mum on a holiday and visiting our ancestors graves in England. Hope he plans to go somewhere else though because England isn't exactly a good holiday destination at the moment.
>>532391926why?could use that money to start a business or pass it on yourself
>>532372952Live witg your parents, invest smartly and you'll have your home in a few years, dummy.
>>532372952The point that OP should be making is that most Americans aren't as well off as him. 100k is not the median. Much lower than that and you have 0 chance of owning a home, especially if you have a wife and kids.Build your own home? Get out of here. Between building code, zoning laws, HOAs, material costs, and the general risk of 1st-time DIY, this concept is unattainable for most. I will punch the next boomer/millennial faggot that says this in response to the housing crisis. Housing regulations need to be systematically dismantled. Until then it's theoretically possible, but practically infeasible for most people that would like to own a home.The system is beyond saving without government invervention. It can be incentive-based and tax-based , but drastic action needs to occur. It's an intervention to break up an existing monopoly.1. Kick private equity out.2. Discourage mass leasing of residential properties3. Property tax break for first time single family home buyers, for the first 5 years.4. Tax breaks for home sales to first time home buyers.5. Severe tax penalties for individuals or businesses owning over 10 single family homes

If I need more than $9000 of healthcare in a single calendar year, then the insurance pays 80% of it above that threshold.Roberts decided that the Obamacare mandate was "just a tax" so you should be able to subtract it.
>>532403251>>532403416Dude just make six figures AND save it for 10 years AND there's no inflation AND you have no emergencies/health issues AND prices stay the same AND you get a 0% mortgage APRGreat advice troons. Got any more seasoned advice to the average person whose median income is 45k?
>>532404423necessities of life are expensive and fancy gadgets are cheapthank you capitalism! I for one am glad I can't afford to eat but I can buy a flat screen tv to watch niggerball!

>>532404423Flagship phones are $2k and are released every year with arbitrary changes and side-grades along with software that does literally the exact same shit--lets you scroll text and images and play videos--but gets more and more resource intensive. Smartphones have not improved significantly in terms of features/function since around 2012/2013. It only became "normal" in the late 2010's for them to cost this much. A flagship was $300 in 2013. It's not just about inflation. The same thing happened to GPUs--$1k bought you a whole mid-high-end PC build in 2012, and now that'll get you 1/2 of the second-best graphics card
>>532404862see how long you can boil it until it leaps out
>>532372952You didn’t include healthcare, your rent is the lowest possible price one could find, car is also less than average.You’re eating ramen noodles.God forbid you might have to pay for daycare.
>>532373224But they prOOOOved that affordable housing does exist
>>532405549Kek
>>532373647We are in the wreck shit now until people decide they actually need to fix things, or run the fuck away before shit starts getting by wrecked (since we were played for time and ignored the problem for too long).See flag.
>>532405633If you talk to them enough they'll start getting mad and tell you that you can live comfortably earning $11 a hour at the grocery store down the street in your basically foreclosed home.They'll outright ignore you if you try to tell them that all these dying communities were propped up to support a factory that got stolen by China because their only stance is to defend the establishment.
>>532405858There is a guy called Raymond on YouTube that has the same line though and his issue is he’s a covert narcissist dry drunk and he bought property and fixed it up (admirable) but cant get anyone to rent it and he’s bought into the higher price levels. So rather than admit shit sucks and he’s a victim of the times who did his best but it’s a cruel world, he’s pathologically committed to defending the idea of property ownership as a personal cope.Maybe other people are like that.
>>532406193normalfaggots are so gay
>>532406193Truly the ironic tragedy is that most shills don't have to be paid, they do it as a self comforting ritual to tell themselves that everyone else is just lazy and the system they receive a sparse amount of success in is still functioning.
>>532372952The average income is 65k$ though and for bachelor degree holders 82k$. Discard the 0.2% and its more like 56k and 72k. Take into account that older folks hold more senior well paying positions and people under 30 make a lot less. Yeah its fucking over.
>>532373787Over here in the city regions for a house not apartment its 550k average. Minimum is like 420k but those are houses that need like 80k euro in renovations done to them since they are from the 30s. Average income is like 55k and median 42k I believe. On 55k you can go into 220k debt maximum or something like that. House literally requires 2 full time incomes that amount to slightly above the average. Meanwhile boomers got those houses 20 years ago when they were 180-200k and the median income was 28-30k.
>>532406985Thats one of the bigges ways they fool mutts. The average Canadian is Richer than the average burger, and we are broke AF. So much of American lifestyle is fueled by personal credit as well.
>>532373224Shit fuck that. If I could do it again the moment I turned 18 I’d take a bus to San Francisco and go from there
>>532411483> San FranciscoI don't think you realized how pozzed certain places are.I live in the middle of Cambridge, MA. And our city hall looks like this.
>>532372952That's what you get for letting in millions of pajeets driving prices up
>>532372952Xoomer, hereIt seems like a lot of yall are just a surplus population An accident of wealth/technology who should not have made it to breeding ageNature always wins
even a house in somalia is out of my reach
