Not so much as to become a rich ghoul, but enough to live well. Assume no student loans, no car loans, and you rent. How would you live your life?

      It's the most control you can have over your housing, a basic need. Yeah it comes with obligations, it's still more free than renting.

          Yeah, but taxes and maintenance on 80k isn't a massive issue.

          Also you're maintaining your housing. That's less a burden and more a basic fact of life.

              That kinda yearly income makes for an easy down payment and low risk for mortgage lenders.

              They might be comfortable with a mortgage, I said I would save up.
