Again, that's fair. It's the ones complaining about not being able to afford anything but not willing to do anything about it that are irritating.

I also never thought my first house was going to cost over half a million dollars, but prices have gone through the roof.

This is why it annoys me when people shite on millennials and zoomers. They're being forced into serfdom due to criminal monetary policies.
A brand new car also cost $4,500 when they entered the workplace and 3/4 of the women were still housewives and there were no such expenses as cable, internet, cell phone, services, etc, and a college degree actually meant you could get a job almost anywhere just based on that alone... But hey... Gas was $1.22/gallon in 1978!!

How much did you buy it for?

It’s always funny when the boomer generation gets triggered when it’s pointed out how fricked up this country is while they’ve been in power.
Wages are stagnant and housing has gone through the roof. So clearly it’s because millennials are lazy

Wages are stagnant for 2 decades and people complain.
Now we have been in hyper wage inflation since covid and it is bitching about the cost of goods and services going up. Imagine that... wages are spiking and more people are wanting to buy homes and Holy shite... these are expensive.
If everyone gets a dollar raise, then no one gets a dollar raise. Welcome to the economics of wage inflation.

And people do, but the idea that that's a $300,000 house is crazy

It is more fun to complain to strangers than to move further away from the central business district.

Once again…..thanks boomers. Just finding new and eventful ways to frick things up even worse.

I'm pretty sure boomers don't demand $20/hr to work at Starbucks.
But go ahead.

It's what people are willing to pay for it. That's how a free market works.
When I lived in Hermosa Beach that house would sell for $1 million or more only to be demolished

The crazy rise in home prices is the same even if you move out from the city. That house that is listed for $305,000 today was sold for $125,000 10 years ago. Sold again for $175,000 in 2016.

If boomers wouldn’t have selfishly stifled wages over the last few decades, they wouldn’t have had the sudden spike.
But go ahead.

This isn't rocket science.
If that is too little home at the price point, then move further out from the central business district.
2500 square foot new construction.
And if you look for older homes, they will be cheaper. Or keep moving out to away from the business districts.
Your home is waiting for you.

Boomers would say why work at Starbucks when you can build your own coffeeshop with your bare hands.
Then you can work there 7 days a week and complain that nobody wants to work for $7.25 an hour
