What's retarded is throwing money at an apartment complex and not owning anything. It's like burning money.
At 22, you have your whole life in front of you. You should be out having a good time, meeting people, doing things, not working on a house. Renting offers you flexibility, which can help if you want to move or have to move.
Also, chances are the OP is not married. Woman have a very strong opinion about homes.
And paying rent isn't that bad IMHO. Yes, you will be losing money but that loss comes with added flexibility in life. And less time doing chores, and more time out there enjoying your $75k salary. You will never feel as rich as you do now.
I got out of school and was make $65k at 24 (1998). I felt so fricking rich, much richer than when I was making $100k at 30. or even now where I make more.

I'm with you 100%. I won't get a house until I'm married and settled on a job that I know I'll be at for a few years.
