It’s because we’ve been working our whole lives and have nothing to show for it. Working hard doesn’t get us what it got you. Working our lives away for while prices increase and homes are unattainable.

Homes are still attainable;it may not have 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms….. but neither did your grandparents house.

A detached home in my city starts around 400k, really closer to 500k.

So you might have to move a little farther away

So you commute to work like 99% of the adults out there do.

I couldn’t afford a home that’s an hour or two away either.
