Comment on Rent is theft
lobut@lemmy.ca 3 days agoA lot of these people are likely tech folks. A lot of tech folks get high paying jobs. They used that pay to buy property.
A lot of these guys are landlords and are trying to convince people that the rent they charge is fair, market rate, and a favour because they’re taking on “risk” while you pay for their mortgage.

a lot of tech folks don’t have great high paying jobs. only a small subset of them do, most of whom, were already rich before they got those jobs because they came from wealthy families.

I’m sure your specific instance is justified and in doing so, you don’t need a random internet stranger like myself to tell you it’s okay.

according to many other random people here, I should be murdered and killed because I own property that I live in, and they think that’s correct because of some theory they believe in.
what they really mean is ‘I wish I had the power to kill and murder people who had more than I do because I’m bitter and blame others for my failings and refuse to take responsibility for my inability to provide for myself. So I’ll just sit around and fantasize and wish violence on others in my head and be abusive on the internet.’
Sitting around and fantasizing about a prefect world in which your life will be a wonderful and happy is a lot easier… than actually making your life better though work.

1200/month FOR A BEDROOM? 1200 Robux? 1200 VBucks? Truly I’m sorry but this is like double my rent and I have multiple rooms (really not trying to flex) I hope your place gets cheaper because that must be eating your wallet.😕

my mortgage for a 2bedroom apartment is 3000/mo. i make over 8000 a month so it’s not a big deal.
