Why do people still rent over the age of 30?
I just moved into a house share aged 24 and the 4 other people are all over 30.
>flatmates
>>72531097
Because it's affordable here
>>72531149
It has been two weeks and i already don't like it.
>>72531097
Cause they fell for the YOLO meme.
These fucking human garbage faggots enjoyed their 20's SO MUCH that they didn't really set up any good framework for the next decade. They didnt make any meaningful relationship work due to being degenerates so now if they want to get out of rent they will have to do it with their own power with no support whatsoever.
So their 30's will consist of them working as disgusting wage slaves, complaining about not finding the right one, or making the same mistake and keep "livin the life" forgetting that you will fucking get old at some point.
>Im a grown man, but i share rent
>I will rent all my life
Fuck you, just fucking die you waste
>>72531097
This is really the reason behind the low birth rates all over I guess. My parents could start working at 16, buy a house in their early 20ies and start popping out children.
Today hardly anyone above 30 owns even a flat yet, and have to get a masters degree... at least.. so closing at 30 and most renting a shitty small flat with no room to get children and no child friendly env.
It's sick mate, I own a small app my self and am in my 30ies. It's different in the districts though, some places you can still get cheap houses, but no work there. I want to sell my shit and move back to the ctry side tbqh. No work these days either so...
Fucking prices on these things.. lit making you a slave your entire life, and for fucking what? A basic house.. people used to make this them self by my grandfathers and partly fathers gen
>>72531370
get out, move back home, disregard your social status and focus on yourself to get out and live alone
>>72531447
Two of them have partners.
Having more than one roommate is pretty degenerate desu.
I have one roommate and she's a 8/10 qt3.14. I couldn't imagine living with another person.
>>72531537
I had to move here for work, i have enough money for a deposit on a proeprty just had to move with two weeks notice.
>>72531097
why not
>>72531447
this monkey gets it
>>72531752
Because its old.
>work hard to buy a house
>have to pay off the mortgage
>pay property tax, water rates, bills, etc
>permanently stuck with this property until you die
Why would you even bother with all that work when you're going to die someday?
>>72532294
>Work hard buy house
>Rent spare rooms out
>Tenants pay mortgage, water, heat, bills etc.
>Chill out with my own house costing me nothing
>Save up buy another property
>?!?!?!
>Rent out more
>!?!?
>Retire aged 30 and do what i want.
>>72531097
Because housing in England is horrendously unaffordable, and expecting each generation to move out is unsustainable anyway.
I'm 27, make $15 an hour, didn't fall for the "get a college degree" meme and I've saved up $62,000 over the years. I'm going to buy a cheap house with a fat down payment at around 30 or so. It's not hard to save money if you just don't buy stupid shit. I don't understand where their money goes to. Tons of people think a paycheck is a ticket to blow that much money in a pay period and then complain to Bernie Sanders that they cant live like this. It's called living below your means you retards.
>>72531097
> he doesn't wreck the house so much he ends up being the only one to live in it
you don't even use pissbottles, do you?
>>72532294
>Throwing your money away to some Jew and getting nothing to shore for it but a temporary roof over your head
Why do people do this
>>72532468
Basically this. I dont want to share my house permantly so i can just airbnb this shit when i feel like it. Now im saving 30% of the next property i will buy.
Plan before i get to 40 will be to have at least 3 appartments and use that rent money to chill and upgrade my own place every couple years. (Im 28 btw, was also going to get married, to a white american woman, but guess how that fucking turned out. i wish i knew about /pol/ before).
Now I can just sit and wait for a good woman to show up while i do the things I like and i dont pressure myself with that anymore.
>>72532842
This is also my plan but i am only 24.
>>72532776
The other 4 housemates all have degrees which i find funny, meanwhile I'm ex Army and working a smiliar paid job as most of them if not even better paid.
>>72533645
People our age have been brainwashed by our parents and teachers that you need a college degree to succeed, but often times the kid ends up getting a useless degree and it becomes more of a burden than a successful investment. I'm an idiot at most all STEM shit so I knew that finishing college would be like throwing time and money into a black hole. I'm technically doing better than the average person my age and that's fucking sad.
>>72534064
I couldnt even get into university in the UK, feels good man.
It's more about who you know anyway literally 90% of the time.
>>72532294
Nigger, a house is an investment. You aren't "stuck with it."
I only pay 400 a month for a nice cottage I earn 80k a year. I don't want to be tied down.
>>72534265
You probably dodged a bullet then, if someone couldn't get into any college here they'd throw a temper tantrum and petition Bernie Sanders, calling it an injustice that they can't pursue their dream of getting a degree in Communications
>>72532294
It's called reverse mortgage, you should google it sometime
>>72531616
What do you do when niggers come over and fuck her?
I have to figure that out soon. I"m about to graduate and I plan on becoming a CPA. I don't want to live at home for too long--maybe only a couple of years. After that I was thinking of getting an apartment. I'll be really lonely though. Girls will never want to date or marry me because girls only like guys who are outgoing and muscular. A shy and average guy can only get used goods and I don't want to be a cuck.
>>72534064
You forgot the part where any above minimum job now demands a degree
It is not like there is a choice in the matter
>>72531616
Do u fug?
>>72534546
Thats exactly why i dont permanently rent rooms and I pick who I let stay trough airbnb. My house my rules
>>72534558
>not buying a girl from a 3rd world country
>>72534644
That's an exaggeration, also your qualifications don't mean shit at an entry-level job in which you get in by knowing a guy who knows a guy. Way cheaper and more effective to just network and meet people who later you can hit them up for a job.
>>72534644
Trades my nigger
>>72531097
>tfw dad tells me to keep my apartment until I'm ready to but a house
>tfw he thinks I will ever own property
Poor naive fool
>>72531097
If you mortgaged that house and had 4 people pay rent to you, you'd have it paid off in a few years. Now who's the stupid idiot?
>>72534916
Lol
It works only if you are from a rich high status family,in which case you were going to "win" at life regardless of what you do so it is not relevant.
For us "normal" plebs it is either degree or unemployment
>muh trades
Only way to get in if your family member is in it. And my country is not even that bad in Spain youth unemployment is staggering 50%.
I have enough money for a house but I like living in different places too much to commit. I've lived in 3 different cities in the past 10 years since moving out and it's way better than staying in one spot.
>>72531097
Buying a house isn't for everyone. Some of us don't want to be tied down to one location for the next 10+ years.
>>72534987
Only possible if your father/mother is in. They wont take anyone from the side.
And these jobs are really limited anyways,there is no demand to enter indipendantly. Times have changed.
I got lucky because family friend got me a job. But otherwise i would be homeless and i even have a degree as well.
>all of these beta men who refuse to man up and take responsibility for their home
Fucking niggers. Society would have never advanced if we were all a bunch of aimless nomads.
>>72535332
>stability is gay
>>72535941
It is if that's not what you want. Dumbass.
Should i buy a house and rent the spare rooms out?
>>72535433
Society has advanced and now we can be aimless nomads again.
>>72531097
It's harder to get loans nowadays at least from larger banks. If you notice, they're working hard to stop people from owning property: rent instead of own, don't own cars, don't own land, and so on.
>>72531097
>Why do people still rent over the age of 30?
It happens when you have not found your place in the world yet. Houses are great but they chain you down.
>>72531097
Because you obviously live in London.
Everywhere else in the country is fine.
Indeed, were you living anywhere else, you wouldn't be in a fucking flatshare with 4 other people.
>>72531097
Because I don't want to pay money for upkeep, homeowner's association fees, or property tax. Also I don't want to live in the US long term. I'd rather live in a nice apartment by myself.
>>72536265
>get raped by dude
>you're gay cause you didn't want it
Why are house prices so high? Is it to do with overpopulation or what?
>>72536445
not gonna lie senpai, the dude looks way more cuddly in the second photo, full homo
Because it's better to rent unless you're developing real estate, or if you're some kind of autistic about "having your own land."
Renting is objectively cheaper and less work.
>buying a house right now when the bubble is gonna pop

Pic related for Canada
>>72531447
Maybe some of us live in really expensive areas and need to have roommates. I don't want to be a cuck complaining about rent when roommates are an option. Here in Southern California the minimum price for a shit box in the ghetto is 300k.
>>72536852
The market only crashed because of the 2008 crisis.
Market wont crash by itself for no reason.
>>72536768
>Renting is objectively cheaper
A lot of people pay less on their mortgage than they did in rent.
>>72531097
Kek. You're now living on the same level as spics and niggers - in a hive. Congrats, you let the globalist a win.
>>72531447
>implying
what good is a fucking house? if you're in the outskirts or surburbs somewhere where it's cheap enough to consider that shit, sure. but in a metropolis?
the only people who have a house there are paying themselves to death.
>>72534911
I wish I could. I don't know how to though. I'd want to marry for love though, not a green card.
>>72536632
Because homes are seen as investment opportunist now instead of just homes and because it suits investors to keep the housing stock low to increase the profit they can make.
>>72537002
>europeans hate having ownership of their possessions
tide goes in, tide goes out
>>72531097
Good luck in court when you all fall out
>>72532294
>Why would you even bother with all that work when you're going to die someday?
you can leave it to your children
>>72536862
Maybe you should move.
>>72531097
I knew you were British before I even opened the thread. A 1st world country where you are packed into cages like animals. And it'll only get worse with the hordes of immigrants we let in day after day.
If your neighborhood or city starts to go downhill it can take months to sell your house which is depreciating as property taxes go up because taxpayers are fleeing...
If you rent and you don't like your new neighbors you just leave the keys on the kitchen counter and leave. The most you can lose is your security deposit.
>>72537195
Luckily the city/town i live in doesnt have any immigrants yet.
I want to make my money then emigrate.
>>72531097
Why don't you fucking ask them, you dumb retarded faggot?
>>72535332
As if you can't rent your house out and make a profit while living elsewhere. Are people this fucking retarded?
its Vancouver and Toronto driving that bubble, the rest of the country is reasonable.
>>72531097
I rent my nice little one bedroom apartment for $400 a month. I feel like a real revolution will happen within my lifetime so I don't want to burden myself with over a hundred thousand dollarydoos worth of debt before I go and fight the good fight.
Also: roommates suck dick I bet you're the faggot that never washes his dishes after using them.
Move out of fucking London.
Average house price in London is half a million.
This is what half a mll gets you outside Edinburgh:

>>72531097
Because of the housing market anon.
In the UK it's always has stability with lending levels and average house prices around 3.5 times average earnings.
Now it's 10x average (25k) in most of the heavily populated South east.
Boomers have enjoyed several booms and crashes since the 1970s but the current government being absolute fucktards wanting to buy the boomer vote are hell bent on propping up the market with public money on market distorting subsidies.
If you want sensible economic rationale for the state of the housing market go to housepricecrash.co.uk and read the exonomics and house prices forum.
You will understand very quickly how housing is used in this country in a way most do not.
>Live in apartment a few years
>Decide it's time to take responsibility and look into buying a house
>Property taxes alone would be half my current rent when split into 12 payments.
>Would spend 3x more each month on heating and electric bills.
>Tons of minor expenses each month related to home ownership and lots of time spent on maintenance.
>Shackled to this thing if my job ever goes to shit or I need to move.
I almost fell for the meme, almost. Why do I need a house if I'm likely always going to be single?
>>72536862
your ancestors moved thousands of miles and you can't move a hundred to someplace cheaper in the information age
hilarious
>>72531097
>Why do people still rent over the age of 30?
Because I'm poor. I'm also not 30 yet, but I assume I'll probably rent then as well.
They just built this in London:

>£1100 per month for a 10 sqm. room
>share kitchen with one other person
>larger "social areas" you can book
>basically student halls for people with jobs
>tfw it's nearly sold out already
>tfw this is the new normal
>>72536289
Buy a DUPLEX. live in your own space and have the other half rented out. Your tenant will pay for mortgage plus some at a reasonable rent.
>>72538531
economics at work. i'd bet ten grand that zoning limits, 'preserved space', and regulations in London are batshit.
>>72531527
You can thank the Jews and their good socialist pals for that.
>tfw parents bought me a flat in west London on the most expensive street in a VERY nice area.
>22

>>72538128
You don't man. If you don't like to deal with people just stay where you are and just buy another apartment for rent.
I know a guy that saved for years, put the downpayment for a house in the historic center, turned all those rooms (Huge as fuck old houses) Into private small apartments that they rent to tourists, and in the first floor he opened a dancing academy. That shit will get paid so fast your head will spin, and after that since he lives in that same house everything he gets from it will be profit.
I kinda hate people so I will buy a small 1 floor house (Because fuck apartments in a city close to a fault), and rent the rest of the properties I buy.
>>72531705
I hope you signed a rolling lease anon.
>>72538653
>$1000-1500 per month rent
>$2000-3000 mortgage

>>72531097
I can not afford a house anywhere near civilization in my country.
The Jews have won, I will never own property until I retire and move up north to the middle of nowhere.
>>72531097
I owned a house at 22. Technically I still do, but I let my ex rent it from me at the cost of mortgage plus she handled upkeep. We'd considered selling and moving before 2008, but jobs didn't like up. The value still hasn't recovered.
Meanwhile I rent about 30 miles away, walking distance to my job. Landlord is nice, I don't need to worry about the yard or maintenance. I can't say I want to be in this situation at 40, but right now it works.
