      LOL $100k as a down payment? Aren't houses in SF like $1.5M? Might as well just accept it's not happening tbh.

        She could get some type of assistance as a first time homebuyer and start out with a crappy rate until she’s able to refinance. Better than paying a landlord. I imagine her rent is astronomical.

      Okay first I was gonna say "content creator" isn't a real job but then saw she's making $28 an hour as a fucking barista, that's wack

        It's san francisco though. The cost of living there is fucking insane.
