That's good and people could take a lesson about living within their means and delaying gratification when they're young. Why is someone down voting you?

Doesn't matter.

I agree that real estate is stupid right now but I also think young people try to live lifestyles that aren't comparable to their parents or older generations. Real estate will eventually correct imo. The current path is unsustainable.

While I agree with you, it's for different reasons.

You think what they're spending is unsustainable, I think it's sustainable because they are spending every dollar they earn.

For example, I invest heavily into my retirement, HSA, brokerage, and 529 account for kids future.

Meanwhile, other people we personally know elect to not carry health insurance because "it's $400 a month", and put $0 towards retirement.

What is happening right now is actually sustainable because they are not saving a dime for anything.
