But is it worse than tricking other people to work 40+ hours a week doing whatever you say and giving you most of the value they create? Because that’s the other option.
Plus if you buy a bunch of houses you can get them to give back most of the money you pay them.
Not too far from reality where I live. One dude already is doing time because he was blatantly dropping cash payments on things like a HOUSE and multiple cars.
In comic, dystopian reality, selling drugs (really just weed) was how I graduated college debt-free, and graduating without debt was the only way I could take out/afford a loan for a house.
So apparently, it’s true what they say, whether planting or selling trees, the best time to do it was 10 years ago. The second best time is now! (Except don’t)
ask them why didn’t they have savings to “buy a private yacht yet” at your age, because I would guess it’s roughly similar in the proportion of pay/cost
I’m 35, and if you squint a bit at the mortgage, I “own” home. With my partner. And we’ll be paying it off for another 27 years. And we’re the lucky ones of this generation.
My parents once asked me why I didn’t have enough savings to buy a house yet.
I almost lost my shit.
The only people my age that I know who own their own house are also drug dealers.
Guess I should sell drugs if I want a house.
I had a legitimate talk about doing this with my girlfriend. As much as I hate how sketchy it is, it still just seems sooo tempting.

Depends on whether you sell harder stuff too I guess.
Funny fungus is cheap, quick, easy and low stakes with decent margins if you’re careful. Or so I’ve heard
Just accept the fact you’ll never own a house and will forever live in a shoebox.
A whole shoebox? Luxury. My 27 brothers and I lived in a bit of rolled up newspaper on the street.

The feds had a FIELD DAY with him.
Damn I just thought about it and the only home owner friend I have that isn’t a drug dealer, is a cop.
I think you’re on to something.
My guy sold weed until he owned a house then had a kid. He figured he pressed his luck long enough. He also had an effective laundry.

LOL when my father asked me how much savings I had, I immediately knew that our life experiences were vastly different.

Buying a home with saving, fucking lol
My daughter is buying a house at 24. People are still buying houses with mortgages.
