I wanna move even further out. There's still too many people here.

That’s fair enough. Nothing is worse than seeing small towns or even rural places becoming populated with more people + becoming more gentrified. My city has one of the highest rising house rates bc other bigger cities will cost you a million dollars for a dump. More ppl suck.

Real estate prices are goin thru the roof right now here in the US. It's a seller's market.

My parents house cost abt $350k almost 10 yrs ago. Now a piece of land in this area is abt same price. Houses here are about $750K+. We hv a housing shortage + ppl living out of their cars. Govt is housing ppl in motels. Homeownership is going down. Only 40% of ppl r homeowners.

That sounds similar to current status in the US. Everything is goin up, up, up. Government spending regarding Covid is incomprehensible. Prices are inflating astronomically. It's one big fuckin economic bubble and it's gonna burst, sooner or later.

Agreed. Many of our homeowners are foreigners from China or India. Apparently, you cannot own property in China, you can only lease property for 80 years + it belongs to the govt. Our PM introduced a capital gains tax. One man who owned 50 properties was outraged by it.

I'm sure he was lol I dont know who's buying what, anymore. I'm pretty isolated. Don't really watch or read much news either. Used to be a news junkie. I see a clip or two on Twitter. That's about it. Fuck the world. I don't care anymore. Am I depressed?

You aren’t depressed, I think you are indifferent to news bc it’s just the same depressing propaganda over + over again. My cousin told me her secret to looking young is not watching the news. Sometimes for the sake of ones mental health + sanity, not watching the news is best.
