Friend, homeowner: "When are you gonna buy a house?" Me, in my head: "I can't think of a single greater trap than home ownership. It's uninspected mass lunacy, giving away all your optionality for a big bauble that eventually destroys your perspective." Me, out loud: "Someday."

On the other hand, consider that home ownership means no longer having a landlord.

I mean the model of buying a home at 25 and owning it 55 is dead in much of the country but if you don’t buy you have to set aside 20 or 30 or 40 years’ worth of rent for retirement somehow which isn’t generally possible in the areas where home ownership is prohibitive either...
