DON’T BUY A HOUSE THIS YEAR UNLESS YOU’RE ALREADY WEALTHY
If you’re not sitting on serious money, rent. Yes, rent. Buying a home in this environment is how ordinary people trap themselves in long-term financial stagnation. If you’re aiming for your first home, the smart move is to wait for a real correction something on the scale of 2008. I’ve watched every boom and bust: the 2008 collapse, the 2020 frenzy, and everything since. Look at the data. The last housing bubble peaked around 266 in 2006. If you believe today’s market is “stable,” you’re not early you’re late. This market isn’t healthy. It’s stuck.
