I love how the ideal mancave is just a pod

>>740003874You are talking to an AI, so it makes sense their room would be also AI generated.
>>740003734
>>740003870no?We will just make out a bit and see where thisll be going from there
>>740004335whatcha doingwith all those switches and patch panels little buddy?
>>740004882That's my workplace's server. The fan is broken, so the case is kept open.

>>740003734I've got one of those packable travel chairs, the exact some one as you in fact. They're fantastic for hiking, but the feet suck. Be careful if you ever have to put it on wet ground.
Where the actual neet stations at? I love seeing those degenerate setups not wagies showing off their just cleaned station with all the fancy money they spent.

>>740006545That's depressing.
>>740006665The work PC in that image, which I'm posting from right now, wasn't handed to me when I was hired. Me and my coworkers built it together by looking though the spare PC parts in the basement, trying to find the ones that weren't broken. The HDD took the longest to find.
Fuck Windows.Fuck Microsoft.
>>740007976why do you need a microphone like that?
>>740007598think we can get a shot at the games on the shelf?
Do any of you bring women over to your gamer stations?
>>740008336I mostly stopped using my headset because I need to hear what's going on in the house better.I spend a lot of time on voicechat with my friends, so I don't want to sound like shit.Any decent quality mic that can be like 2 feet away from your face tends to be larger.No good space pn desk for big microphone without blocking a monitor, so I got an arm.
>>740008514I bring my _boyfriend
>>740008514My wife fantasizes about performing fallatio from under my desk while I play games.She tried once but under the desk is a little small. She told me to get a bigger desk or pull it away from the wall. I didn't lol.

Question to all the homeowners of /v/, how did you finance you're house purchase. Over here in Sweden the current average house price sits at roughly 3.8$ mill. Even with a house loan of 90% (bank's max limit towards the total home price) that still leaves me with roughly 38-39$ k that has to be paid out of pocket. I just don't see how people are able to afford homes in this economy yet these threads are usually full of home owners.
>>740008514No, I have a lot of delicate electronic devices and disassembled computers around, no girls allowed. Nobody allowed. Stay the fuck out.
>>740011161based. I hope it gets worse for sweden.
>>740008514yes but because because if a woman every asks to see your computer know that she really just wants into your bed
>>740011161family
>>740011161>these threads are usually full of home owners.you believe everyone online?
>>740003783a pod is like 1/4th the size
like most of /v/ I live in a third world favela so I'm ashamed of posting it
>>740006828I recognize the water bottle but it was pretty obvious to me from the rest of the picture too
>>740011161family helped out and we inherited the land, sometimes I remind myself just how lucky I got especially given I live in a land of commieblocks
>>740011161Fellow Swede here, I've just been saving since I was like 14 doing summer work. 25 now and bought an apartment since I'm a filthy capital dweller
>>740012778How much did it end up at? Even the apartments I've looked at (not in melanin enriched areas) still go for 1.5-2 mill.
>>740003734Camping chairs are the best gaming chairs. I just wish they made them less ugly.
>>740012778You made half a million on summer work?
>>740013016Nta but I'm sure he means that he saved most of his money since he was 14.
>>740003734>unironically my set up, except I just use my TV as a monitorfrom an outside perspective, it is a bit concerning
>>740012909I saved up about 450k, it helped that I put almost all of it in ISK as soon as I could>>740013016Like the other anon said
>>740013124Also I meant 450k kr if it wasn't obvious
>>740011161Uh ,why do you need a home when Mohammed is still in a small apartment (that you're paying for)? Let's help him first before you get a house, you racist.
>>740013824Ironically there has been a pretty heavy anti immigration shift in our country, but it has come way too late. The only thing that could save the market would be a housing crash like in 2008; a hard reset.
>>740013824He already lives in your mind rent-free though
>>740013862Ahh cosy.
>>740006256Oh look it's that one fat guy that posts in literally every one of these threads
>>740011161Generational wealth. It is the o ly way nowadays. Even so, I only have a 2 bedroom leasehold apartment
>>740004335Bro I used to work in a parking garage that had the EXACT same server box. I don't know why it just unlocked some repressed memories
>>740013076Minimalism is comfy. Not having shit to worry about is really liberating.
>>740003734I posted my peasant-tier gamer station one time but people lambasted me for having a PS5 so I'm never posting my station again.It's a real gamer chigger station too.Just a mattress on the floor and a steralite plastic tub as my table I have my tv and ps5 on.None of you fags get to see it thouh.I also got this badass lavalamp but you also don't get to see that because I don't care about you cunts anymore.

>>740003734How do you cope of being alone? Life changes happening after everything being the same for 20 years
>>740003734shouldn't the pillow be backwards?
>>740011161Hope you can live with your parents for a year or two so you can save up that flat cash amount. Also if you're getting a loan you'll get better deals if you're paired up with a partner since when it come to housing they want to have a body to shove the loan off on in case you die early
>>740014560Ahem.*fixes tie**straightens shirt**presents*Just be outside a lot.*bows**sits down*
>>740014715meant for >>740014563
>>740013862I give it a "live, laugh, love" / 10
>>740014563i can't. and the worst part is that i feel the most alone when i'm surrounded by other people
Looks better at night imo
>>740011161Being single saves you alot of money. I saves up $300k over 10 years of working
>>740015392Not really possible on a Swedish salary. If you make more 60k a year, you start getting taxed for more than 50%
>>740015392If you are able to save 30k usd a year, what is your salary at?
>>740015584I can save 30k usd a year on a salary of 42k I just live within my means
>>740015719Is the 42k after tax?
>>740003734At least you're not fat.
>>740015749yes
>>740015137I feel everyone else are moving on while I'm left behind
>>740015719So your monthly remainder for expenses is 1k (I assume you meant after tax). How are you even able to afford rent? Again I'm talking about a scenario where you as of yet do not own a home, and how you would be able to save up that much while also paying rent + utilities + food.
>>740015861I make about 49k after tax but apartment costs 1.3k a month in rent which is a bit of a self grief
>>740014563SameI like being alone and just doing my thing during the day when I'm awake, feels more free, but when things get quiet in the evening, and especially when I'm laying in bed and can't sleep, the loneliness starts to set in and I just really wish I had someone to wrap my arm aroundrobot waifus when
>>740014563Thinking leads to overthinking, so you nip it in the bud and stop thinking.Turn yourself into a sholar, a robot or a retard, whatever you fancy, but keep your mind busy.
>>740006032ps5 gamer?
>>740016134Midwest studio I rent is $650 a month. Ut is like $80 max a month. I know how to cook at a very high level so food for me is $360 a month max but usually around $270 a month.
>>740016220>but apartment costs 1.3k a month in rent which is a bit of a self griefnta but tell me about it...I live in a 30m2 box in the city which runs me roughly 800 (8k SEK) in rent alone.
>>740016460>Midwest studio I rent is $650 a month.Ah then I kinda get it. See >>740016502, our rents are out of control and it's only getting worse.
>>740016502>>740016562Which region?
>>740016502Yeah my apartment for 1.3k is 55 sqr m at least. But it still feels crazy to pay each month
>>740014563I have schizoid personality disorder so I kind of just get on with it. loneliness doesn't bother me in the same respect that it does most people. I do wish intimate relationships came to me easier though instead forcing myself to be alone.
>>740016641>Which region?Uppland for me. It's better out towards the outskirts areas like Östhammar, Norrtälje, Gävle etc but if you do not have a car it's impossible to get a job there. I'm currently locked to either Uppsala or Stockholm due to the commute distance.
>>740004335Why do you sleep in the bathroom
new place; what do you think?
>>740011598>showed her my curated folder of reaction images insteadI fucked this up, didn't I
I want my own place, I can technically afford it but one of my issue is not knowing where I want to live. Kinda like the town I live in now, but I also hate a lot about it. On one hand it's well developed while also having a lot of good nature around, plus my family is here. But on the other hand the climate sucks, it's always windy, winter are wet and summers are bright and hot as fuck even at night. Also, they decided this was a good place for an airport and I'm tired of hearing jet engines every fucking morning.Not even sure If I'm even able to get a loan when my salary is so low. I don't have any family to borrow money from or even act as a surety for a loan.I think I'm just fucked
>>740011161inheritance. My grandma left me 120k after she died, 80k of which I put down on a 250k 30m2 apartment in a large city. My mortgage is about 1000 a month (euros) including HOA and utilities. That was a year ago, I'm 37. I was living in a 8m2 shared kitchen room before and paying 700 a month on rent. I would not be able to afford jack shit without that inheritance even though I have a decent job working for local government. The housing market here is completely fucked, everyone knows this. I think the average sell price for a house is coming up on half a million euros.
>>740017089Does your family not want to act as security? Or is their work also on the lower end of the pay grade?
>>740003783>nooo you need to want more you must consoom
>>740017089as someone who moved all over the place, I would recommend staying. At least you have your family nearby. I don't talk to my family anymore because reasons, but this means every new city I go to I have absolutely nobody and I am at an age where I don't even know how to meet people.
>>740011161>>740014481This.It would have taken me over a decade - if not two - to afford to buy my house with cash. And that's if I never had a single car, medical, or any kind of emergency ever and if the market never skyrocketed.My options were to either rent forever or get cucked by a mortgage. If I'm gonna pay monthly for where I live, I might as well live in a larger, detached building that I can fully customize and comes with a yard. My mortgage is cheaper than my rent was, but I know I'm getting fucked in interest. But hey, at least it will be fully paid off at some point (maybe) and I have garden, can grill, and have no neighbors connect to me to worry about.
>>740015149>Looks better at night imoYou can easily fix that by replacing the desk with something that's not an Amazon cheapo and repainting the wall with something more matte and not navy blue. I'd go a color that compliments your already existing furniture, same goes for the wood texture of your desk btw.

>>740017373Mix of both. My dad is the only one who has good education, worked a good job all his life and has money, but he never cared about me>>740017458Makes sense, maybe not move too far away
>>740017089>I want my own place, I can technically afford it but one of my issue is not knowing where I want to live.Literally me.I can either stay here and have my parents and brother close, also some of me friends or move 30-40 min away to a place I like better that is close to the sea, which would force me to drive every time I want to see my family or friends, and I hate driving.
Does it get better when the boomers die?
>>740018267What changes?
>>740018379Maybe people are more willing to sell their houses and apartments, rather than sitting on them
You guys have money and jobs?
>>740003783Yeah, I don't need much to be satisfied. Id rather live in a pod cheaply than share a bigger apartment with 3 other people. Especially if the "pod" is as spacious as op pic
>>740018267No, this is a cope akin to telling poor people in the 1700s that they get their salvation after they die so just be cool with having a shit lifeThere's not going to be a massive die off overnight, it's gonna be a slow decades long burn and at every step of the way theres gonna be a foreigner there to take when should have been yours

>>740011161inherited.
>>740018267The boomers will hold on to anything still in their clutches, they will try to cheat death for as long as they can and will taint any inheritance with the debt they'll rack up. They will burn up the world just to prolong their dominance over it for one day longer
>>740011161You actually think these people own their own homes without dad or moms money anon? The answer is and always be rich parents or a rich family bloodline. Thats it thats the answer. Also called connections to make it sound more tolerable for the poors itt.
>>740011161I studied and worked. I would have got an average new home no problem but we also inherited so I have a big house in a nice neighborhood with no commute.People are me are why nothing makes sense. We have loads of money with normal to normal-good jobs and I suspect there are a lot of us among the non immigrant population.
>>740014481Incorrect. I own the home. The bank owns a debt.
R8
>>740021793Can your neighbours see into your room?
>>740017089I feel ya. I dont like being tied down too much to places or people. Especially considering that i do somewhat want to move to another country and having my own place will cause more issues if i were to get a good reason to move(if you are wondering why would i need a reason to move if i want to move, its because i realize that my wish to move is heavily influenced by grass is greener at other side, so i decided to not make rash decisions and instead wait for good opportunity if that comes by.)>Not even sure If I'm even able to get a loan when my salary is so lowthats the worst part, its easier if you have a significant other and you can pile money from 2 salaries or you live with parents and dont pay rent(like me)Keep in mind that the older you apply for a mortgage the shorter time and bigger payments will be.In the end staying around where i live now is probably the best option for me because my uncle owns a few small plots of land outside of city and i think i could buy one of them at a very good price and just build what i want there for myself(a garage with some living accommodations).
>>740003734>R: 156 / I: 32
>>740022112>grass is greener at other sideI'm scared of this too. Imagine taking up a mortgage for a house only to realize the place sucks just like the one you came from. Or worse, something serious breaks like the plumbing or the roof or some shit and now you have to get another loan to fix it and be even more in debt
>>740022658That's why you get a professional evaluation BEFORE purchase.It's a lot cheaper.
>>740022658Plumbing doesn't break. I bought a place and renovated and realized the electrical wires probably could have used a re wiring but ill live with it. I did some fixes myself which worked. The roof you should investigate before you buy and the bank will require you to hire someone to make sure the structure is intact.Its a case of "he who dares, wins".
>do some research about prefab houses thinking it will be cheaper>permits and other bullshit makes it more expensive than buying a penthouse.Explain this to me. Do ""they"" simply don't want me to leave the city?
>>740022885Electricians will just tell you to always rewire.Plumbers will always just tell you to re plumb.They dont test what you have and tell you if its good or not. If you had a building that was very young, like 10 years old they would laugh at you hiring them and tell you that obviously you dont need to re do anything yet.
>>740022658>something serious breaks like the plumbingi guess you could use insurance to cover the expenses but then it depends on providers, because some will pay out no questions asked while others will try to weasel out of the contract.it is also possible to do some of the work yourself. especially considering that with the internet you can get all the theoretical knowledge on what to do.>the place sucks just like the one you came fromin that case i guess its best to suffer for few years and move again, or make peace.
>>740023098And you think that's means you shouldn't do it...why?It's still cheaper than the alternative
>>740023149>i guess you could use insurance>"nah, this shit is too old and bound to break, sorry you didn't follow our strict standards, we wont give you anything :)"
>>740003783*cuckshed
>>740006256cute kots
>>740023043>Do ""they"" simply don't want me to leave the city?Yes, they want everyone to live in the city for maximum productivity and control. They are achieving this by making it impossible to not live in the city. There are no schools there, no jobs, no stores and shit infrastructure

>>740017089That's actually one of my biggest issues. I feel like I can't commit to a single city, or even a single neighborhood. They should at least let you rent the place for a couple of months before doing something as serious and costly as a house purchase. How can I know for sure I want to be there my whole life if I've never seen how summers and winters are like?

>>740003783I'd gladly live in a "pod" in the woods made out of wood if it meant I got to fuck around on my own property without faggot neighbors bothering me
>>740028689It helps, but there's the matter of your own independence.And then there's also the societal pressure that normies and internet faggots emulating normies peddle forward to put other people down.Maybe 10 years ago it wouldn't be that much of a problem but they still push this shit, I'd like very much to put their heads through the wall.
>>740011161I saved up for 7-8 years while living at home.Honestly my house is pretty shitty in terms of size/area, but perfect for a single loser like me. It was already done up too, so I lucked out and had to do very little in terms of decorating and such. My deposit was about 20k Bong.

>>740011161Family inheritance and good investments. I'm not rich, but I earn enough from my investment to allow me to splurge money on GPUs and PC parts without tying a noose around my neck after every purchase.I got an old house in another state my uncle left me after he passed away, I put it for rent and use the money to keep the house from falling apart and pad out any bill I hate paying, mostly taxes.
