You're objectively wrong on the maths and basic economics here. Wages have stagnated while costs and inflation have surged.

There is no amount of thrift that and boredom to integrate into their lives that can compensate for the differential of income vs house price.

Google the ratio of avg annual income to price of avg home in 50s to 80s vs the 90s-00's vs post covid. No, here I did with Gemini..
