I see a lot of expensive houses being built in my area. A LOT. And the weird thing is that they’re being bought pretty quickly. Are these people just making more money than me? If so, what are they doing for a living? Or are they just living house poor? How exactly are they affording these places?

Edit: For reference, my neighborhood is starting to become popular (because the other popular neighborhoods have priced most people out of affording places there). The normal price of newer homes here is $700k. My home, built in 1965, which is 2500sq ft on a quarter acre of land, is $500k.

    Every large city in the US has tent cities within yards of a skyscraper.

    Your criticism of the Chinese in this response is that they are an unbalanced mix of too rich and too poor. Kind of sounds like our country, huh?

    Your racism doesn’t appear to be based in logic here. Is that on oversight on your part or was it a conscious decision?
