Ya I hear it all the time but it's usually a bit tongue and cheek but these guys are just rediculous. $747k in 2011 is crazy money, I understand getting your live and die house sooner than later but not at the sake of being eyes deep in debt.

There are people in the same situation without owning a house or anything. Not sure any of this is about status. It's probably more about stupid.

I think if you think "owning" a house is still a good "investment", you're out to fucking lunch.
If you are in a GREAT location, then cash is king.

It's all about location.

People are out to lunch, dat image, dat life, dat car payment, dat new restaurant, dat new Apple product, l'el
Like it was mentioned before a ton of people are living like that, a lot more than people think and a lot that would never admit it. Fuck all of them if you can't make basic prioritizing decisions.
I like how the couple in the article has not even once considered downsizing lol

I didn't read the rest of the article, did see above that they haven't sold yet. Just sell and downsize. Since they bought in 2011, probably more than enough profit to be living comfortably in a semi or townhouse.
