Am I the only one who thinks homeownership isn’t the greatest goal which we can achieve?
No. It's great for many, but not so great for others.

As others have said, owning a house ain't cheap. shite breaks and if you already blew your meager savings on a down payment, you're screwed.
That's when you go into credit card debt to fix the a/c, plumbing, etc. Being poor sucks.

I am mid-40's. No kids, no wife, no desire to do yard work. No desire to fix shite on my own. No desire to pay for things that break like appliances, AC units, etc. No desire to own any tools. Enjoy spending disposable income on fun things besides roofs, gutters, and refrigerators that go bad. I am the blueprint for a person who is just fine renting an apartment.
Yet I have had friends who keep insisting that I should own a home.
