I bought my house in 2009 and I was really lucky because I wouldn't have been able to afford one precrash. It was actually cheaper to have a mortgage on a house than rent in many 2 bedroom 800 sq. Ft. apartments in my area. Cheaper than some 1 bedrooms in certain areas around here.
For a few years after 2009 interest rates and prices were low enough much more affordable than now.
My situation then is not the situation most millennials find themselves in just a few short years after and certainly not now, especially since I'm an old ass millinial.
I make 6 times what I did when I bought my house and my means is roughly the same plus a car payment basically. My house is worth much much more than what I mortgaged.
A million back then could have given you a lot, lot more structure and a lot more land. Now it'll get you around a 2700 sq. ft. house on an 4th of an acre in a neighborhood in my area. Less than an hour down the road you'll get a shitbox in the hood.
This article is just full of so much shit relative to the normal person. But then that's not the target audience. It's just there so Gen Xers and Boomers will continue to subscribe and just drives the "if millinial weren't stupid and lazy they'd have the same opportunities as we did." propaganda.
How are you a millennial? I was barely out of highschool in 2009
If millinial births start in 1980 then a millinial could have been 29 in 2009.
1980 is definitely gen x
I was born after 1980. It isn't definitely generation x because the definition has changed since millennials were called generation y/why. So a person born in 1981 would have been 28 years old in 2009. It doesn't change anything.
Then you maybe aren't one? you're born in the 90s which makes you heavily tail end.
Edit. Sorry I guess you're millennial out to approx 1996, but still, there are a lot of us born WAY before you. There were millennials in middle school before you were born. Don't be shitty about it.
