| Topic | Apparently Owning Property Takes You From The Bottom 10% To The Top 20% |
| Trialia 07/29/19 9:45:45 PM #26: | To me anyone who owns a house is extremely well off, even if it's mortgaged. At least the last 3 generations of my family have rented, and social housing at that, which means below market rent. And from all my & my aunt's research, I believe my great-grandparents lost one of their toddlers to a nasty childhood accident mainly because they couldn't afford to get a doctor out to him, poor little soul. (Though they might still have lost him, as he caught his baby-frock on fire playing too close to a bonfire, poor kid, & his burns killed him over the course of 3 days. He was only three, and this was before the NHS.) If I sold every single thing I owned, I might just break even at zero. --- Trialia ~ unfaithful-mirror.net PSN: Trialia_X, Xaedere (100%) | XBL: trialia, Noquelle (100%) ... Copied to Clipboard! |
