In retrospect, I definitely should have bit the bullet a few years back and just bought. Even if it was a town home, I'd be in a much better position now.

Issue was, I was stuck on wanting to save up a ton of money for a down payment thinking it'd be smart to reduce the monthly cost (particularly PMI). I know now that that is generally not a great idea and that money is better spent elsewhere; but I never had any guidance from my parents in the whole process so I'm learning everything on the fly.

Like in most situations, I wish I knew then what I've learned now.
You and I are in identical situations. Didn’t realize you were also early 30’s all along here. Never had guidance or anything either. I’m currently renting a really nice house for a cheeeeap price in Desoto. Wish I knew more about finances growing up as well.

I think learning on the fly could end up making guys like us really become more cerebral down the road once things are steady more. Learning on the fly is a quite a journey.

I'm just not seeing the oversupply or supply at all for entry level houses.

Yes, sir. Late 80s baby.

Every generation has had its challenges but I feel like we’re getting the ****ing shaft.

I'm currently living in a van down by the river waiting for the housing bubble to burst so I can afford real estate. Sorry in advance for your loss.

Are you the guy who dusts the sand off of the supermodels when they're doing beach shoots? If so, do you have any advice on how to break into the industry? Asking for a friend.

I could own a house in Waldo, right now, without a mortgage. Especially cheap if they don't have a garage.

I've been blessed. Had my first house at 20...and paid for buy pure luck.

There was an old farm house adjacent to my grandparents property. They were both handicapped but I've grown up with them all my life.

After they were gone my parents bought the house...and 80 acres. I worked my farm and my grandparents.

It was a great time being single. No payments, cattle in back, and no ****s to give. Keep in mind this was no penthouse. The house was built in the early 1900s.

Fast forward a few years and I thought it was a good idea to get married. Didn't work and I lost it all.

My parents were lucky enough to start a business and retired at 50. They became snowbirds and bought a house in Florida. (My brother lives there)

A few years ago they decided to build a new house in Missouri. When they were doing construction Ma came to me and the wife and said "pick out fixtures".

Why? She said it's yours.

They put my name on the house here and my brother gets the one in Florida.

Before the trolls start....best thing my old man ever taught me was he said one day...."I got me money, go get yours".

I'm proud of them but hate telling this.

Most people think of a spoiled rich kid. My old man definitely made sure that didn't happen. He just got back from Hawaii and I'm eating Ramen noodles. Wouldn't change anything though.

Only downside...it's my house...when they're gone. Ma just left us recently and Pa isn't well.

I thought about a CP BBQ when things get settled. It's unmm not a small house....and the 14th tee box is out the back door.

If you did that, would women show up or men? It would be an interesting but high risk experiment.
