Hear about how much debt everyone in the US has all the time, curious about some of your stories!

My bad debt is 10k left on a school loan from a for profit school that is now out of business.

Only other debt is house.

So how are you all doing with debt management?

I looked at a 400k home that literally had standing water in the basement at the time of the showing.

That would cost me and my gf a solid ~4k/month for 30 years with a 20% down payment.

Bank profits over $1M

If it's not murder house in middle of nowhere, it's out of budget.

Like tiny homes are becoming a thing... but like smallest legal home lots are 250k in most cities. Feels like middle of nowhere is only place to be.
