Sure, there are tons of intangibles that go into it. I’m just saying that people shouldn’t buy because that’s the only way to get ahead, they should buy because that’s the lifestyle they want.

Yeah but you’re arguing that to someone who already said they did buy. You can make that point but you’re directing at the person you’re responding to, who has already said they own a house. You are going to strain your shoulder.

It turns out more than just the person I responded to read these comments. That is who this exchange is for, OP likely doesn’t care one iota since they’ve already made their decision (and I mine). I’m merely suggesting that home ownership isn’t essential and may even be detrimental to financial success (depending on local markets and personal habits).
I hope it’s an eye opener for someone that decides to do the math and find out for themselves what’s ideal for them. I don’t care one bit if people buy a house or not after reading what I have to say, I only hope that purchasing a house is a lifestyle choice and not an obligation to “get ahead.”
