    A $2600/month mortgage is like a half million dollar house dude

    Umm…try looking up what $400,000 worth of debt will cost you monthly today (and what your existing equity plus debt and on-hand cash will even buy you in today’s market).

    I wouldn’t move in this market at all if you can make your mortgage payments.

      $400,000 will buy you a mansion where I live. My house is worth about half that, and it’s quite nice.

        👏 👏

        Just simply be like this random dude on the Internet…live in his neighborhood and emulate his daily commute…he’s the finest, most shining example.

        Feeling down? Wife got cancer? Relocated from your entire friends, family, and your job? No worries, you’ll have SCB from the Internet to keep you company.

          Or just move literally anywhere in the Midwest with the equity from your half-million dollar home, and buy one for 150k, and get your wife treatment.

          You can’t possibly be this dumb, so I’m going to assume you had a bad day at work today. Hope it gets better.

          Uselessly being a dick isn’t going to make it better. Call a friend.

            LOL. I’m having a lot of fun actually.

            You’re like a parody of all of the bad advice I’ve gotten in my life, and all of the worst of the fortune/CNN money/bloomberg clickbait non-sense that I’ve read over the years.

            Haha I said literally that exact same thing to this asshole the other day word for word! Or maybe it was another moronic asshole on lemmy, there’s tons here and it’s hard to tell them all apart. But this guy is definitely a particularly bad and aggressive flavor of stupid for sure.
