      Sucks to be you, I own a home made from recycled cardboard with a nice concrete roof (they call a bridge) ;)

      On a serious note yeh renter too can’t afford one doesn’t matter what I earn unless I want to go paycheck to paycheck

        Even paycheck to paycheck it’s impossible. I calculated that the minimum salary needed to buy a run down 1br/studio sized apartment in the ass end of the outer boroughs of my city is $200k.

        They generally start around $500k for a shit tier place.
