A delivery man and a paralegal would barely be able to make RENT there, much less own a house
>>223354216You could easily buy a house in the working class part of Queens in the 90s on a dual income household
>>223354216queens was not expensive in the 90s my dude.
>>223354216Once again you fucking incels are looking to a fictional sitcom to provide realism in the real estate market.
>>223354216They should do a reboot where Doug is an AirBnB baron.
UPS workers make a surprising amount and have a good union + Doug worked a lot of overtime.
>>223354291Pretty much like you libs thinking a male can surgically become a woman, right?
houses were affordable before the jews imported 100 millions shitskins and bought all the single family homes
>>223354216I own my own apartment in Queens paid $150k
>>223354380They'll say something about jews and hate you because they can't do shit outside of their own raging impotence
>>223354447There are affordable ways to live in NYC if you know tricks and make concessions and I am not jewish.
>>223354447Are "they" in the room with us right now?
>>223354216It was the 90's.
>>223354301they already did with Kevin Can Wait. They had Leah guest star at the end of the first season, and brought her on in the second season while killing his wife in the show off screen between seasons. I don't know if they did an Airbnb episode; I just remember him starting a pho food truck, so it definitely chased trends at the time
>>223354568and then later on in Kevin Can F**k Himself she ends up killing Kevin
>>223354464Probably easier just to play the game and not spend years and money avoiding 'tricks'>>223354466Yes actually. You're in this thread shitting it up actually
>>223354247no the fuck you couldn't not on a lower-middle class salary. it's where all the wall-street guys bought fuck-shacks to bang their mistresses
>>223354216UPS delivery guys make bank once they get to the point of having their own truck
>>223354737No the fuck there wasn't. Where the fuck do you stupid zoomers get your info from?
>>223354760You ever deliver 300 packages in a day? I would rather kill myself than do that shit ever again
>>223354818i will actually rape you for how stupid you are. i'm 37. i'm old enough to remember. you weren't even alive. your dad was barely old enough for me to rape by the time you were born
>>223354827this guy knows. i moved to a new state about 5 years ago. first and only "job" i applied for was fedex. >did a ride along with one of the drivers>saw their little "dispersement center" or whatever it's called>drivers had to load their OWN trucks>always on a timer>going over time encurs penaltiesfuck that. i started my landscaping business a week later and never looked back. mowing lawns is fun, and i'm busier than i can handle to be desu.
>>223354835This fag got raped in Queens in the 2000s and lost his mind.
>>223354737Delivery truck driver isn't a lower middle class salary. It's one of the best non-business owner and non-skilled trade incomes that is realistically achievable for somebody without a degree. Plus, they had 2 incomes (maybe 2.5 if Arthur chipped in for bills) and zero kids. Also the housing market wasn't completely fucked 30 years ago by inflation and private equity and immigrants.
>>223354216Paying off a house is way cheaper than renting.
>>223354568how did a sitcom get away with killing off a wife character
Wasn't it a subplot that Carrie was selling her ass on the side?
>>223355270the later season drama of her keeping the apartment had her fucking other dudes as the implication
>>223354984>It's one of the best non-business owner and non-skilled trade incomes that is realistically achievable for somebody without a degreethen how come it's all jeets doing it now, rajesh? are you elite human capital saaar???
>>223355301Shut the fuck up you seething milk skin. Immigrants love to hustle and actually make something of themselves, while white people sit around jacking off to porn 24/7 and trying to emulate blacks
>wife belittles you for years >you pay for everything, demand very little >wife is a total bitch >decide to adopt a kid >wife wants to get a place in the city >you pay >decide not to sell house >she still wants the city apartment >why>end up separating >get back together on condition that you don’t need 2 places >wife hiding secret fuck pad from you >separate again >decide to adopt the kid together still after a wacky split trip to china to adopt the kid first before getting together again infuriating show trajectory
>>223355327i could smell curry and poop on your first post from a mile away, sukdeep (: be for to having a werry nice day please
>>223355327lmao sure thing faggot dahlityou’re probably in canada or texas too huh
>>223355363>I am not indian. my family is pakistaniturds are turds. you can call them whatever you want. they're still turds. jeet is just a blanket term for desert-niggers
>>223355363saar pls be doing this ting saar shut the fuck up faggot nobody cares jesus you fucking retards are so self unaware
Brother there is not a dessert anywhere near my country of origin
>>223355301That's exactly why (((they))) are importing jeets to do it now. Can't let white men who didn't go to leftoid indoctrination camp after high school earn a respectable living so import jeets to drive down the value of labor. Keep in mind King of Queens is set during the 90s and 2000s, before the street shitter plague was unleashed on us.
>>223355363>I am not indian. my family is pakistaniThere's no difference.
>>223355363>jeet from muslim india thinks we care whether he's from hindu india or muslim india.you are still a jeet
>>223355397i applied for fedex 5 years ago. low pay and grueling hours/workload. literal slave-tier (and i've worked road construction before). very mindless, repetitive work. perfect for jeets. i'm white, so i started my own business.
>>223355387thing is, every time you talk to a jeet online, it's probably that jeet's FIRST time being online. only like 30% of their shithole country has internet as of right now. it's not one or two jeets spamming the same retarded response. it's a brand new jeet every time, and they're literally every stereotype you've ever heard. dumb, cocky, stinky, borderline-retarded, rapey, obsessed with black dick, etc
>>223355327>Immigrants love to hustle and actually make something of themselvesOkay now please go back to wherever you came from and keep doing that, and I'm sure you people will stop being 3rd world any day now :)
>>223355373>>223355387>>223355401>>223355403lmao the jeet got roasted too hard and deleted his reply. -10,000 izzat
>>2233542161990s those homes were about 200k tops. and a UPS driver made around 30 an hour. her paralegal probably paid 15. that's 45 an hour. they probably had a nice down payment of 10% or 20% saved up.it was very possible. it's not Manhattan and its not San Francisco. it's Queens. you can still find homes there for 600k as fixers.
>yt men getting jealous of big brown cock againevery single thread
>>223354216Doug's parents bought it iirc
>>223354349Yeah, but reagan imported and gave amnesty to millions a few years prior to the 90s. Why was it so "cheap"
A lot of you whipper snappers are too young to remember a time before the 90s Republicans and Clinton/Bush pushed deregulation as a way to put Wall Street on steroids, but it genuinely fucked the common American up forever. Let me explain:In America, states operated in business and financing more regionally. Tennessee, for example, might be primarily served by multiple decent sized, state-wide banks based in Knoxville, Chattanooga, or Memphis, which employed Tennesseans, built beautiful buildings, and generally competed with each other in the state only.Republicans began pushing deregulation, but it's not their fault, cause Clinton ultimately signed it into law. What this meant is that: businesses could now cross state lines, buy those banks, and begin operations. Now, most Americans use a bank based in NYC. Probably Citigroup, Chase, or Capital One, etc. A lot of those old buildings in Knoxville are dumps now. And now every mid-sized American city looks like a carbon-copy of itself.There's literally zero reason why NYC today should be expensive, other than NYC was ground-zero for all the deregulatory mortgage lending: a real estate company based in Kansas could theoretically decide to buy and lend mortgages in Brooklyn neighborhoods and price out locals like Doug
>>223355512I thought it was Doug's childhood home and they gifted it to him when they moved to Florida.
>>223354265>my dudefaggot nigger lover
>>223355588>Yeah, but reagan imported and gave amnesty to millions
>>223355942Explain it. How were millions given amnesty and access to social services yet kept home prices "low."
>>223354464what tricks
>>223356184That was a long time ago. Back then the U.S. still had manufacturing jobs that paid a livable wage. Reagan foolishly sent all those jobs to China to increase corporate profits and turn China into its own personal factory. That backfired because the U.S. now doesn’t make anything and the dollar is declining in use. All of this means inflation and Americans will have to transition back to producing something the world needs since the dollar is no longer the thing that can keep it afloat.
