That seems about right, I’m an elder millennial and the only reason I own a home is because I was able to take out a VA loan back in 2009. If I had to put 20% down, even back then, it would have never happened. These days you’re talking down payments of $100,000 which is ludicrous.
Older millennial here. Been saving since I started my career in 2008. Purchased in 2020. The only reason I was able to was because my girlfriend received a 10 year retroactive compensation for being paid less than her make colleagues and her employer offered compensation. The amount was incredible. It was like winning a fairly good amount in a lottery.
That’s the only reason we were able to buy. Luck.
But there is a bright side! Maybe retirement kind of stinks?
What fucking take is that? No. No, man. Shit no, man! First chance I don’t have to work for someone else I’ll take it. I have things I want to do instead of work.

It’s Business Insider. They are very pro-capitalist.
They are very anti-human too
They already said pro capitalism, don’t need to repeat
