    What in the fuck type of moron would say something like that, there are so many companies and individual dudes that you can pay to do all the maintenance and upkeep tasks for you. Like what the fuck do people think a maintenance handyman is?

    If you really want to LARP at playing/paying rent, just ring up a local handyman and hand him $200 a month whether or not you needed anything done.

      Well on one hand, they aren't smart and are radlibs. On the other, how the fuck can they pay a mortgage without knowing what equity is? If they're not the actual densest motherfuckers on the planet, then I seriously start to wonder whether Black Rock and Friends are greasing podcaster palms

        Pretty much every boomer has/had a mortgage and they are some of the stupidest people I know when it comes to finances. The game was so rigged in their favor they don't need to know anything.
