    You clearly don’t understand how economics works.

    I don’t have shit right now except a massive debt.

      debt

      And the house for you and your kids, right? How many renters can say the same?

        If they’re renters… Then all of them

        A roof is a roof.

        Owning the house you live in isn’t something magical. The only significant benefit is the investment right now. A lot of the other benefits disappear too if you crash the housing market hard enough.

          Renters will never own the property they’re paying for, but you and your children will.

            They still have a place to live. That’s what makes them renters, otherwise we’d call them homeless.

      So you don’t have a house to live in? Shame.
