My parents bought the house for less than my car, $32k.

It is selling now for $450k.

That means to have the same buying power I'd need to make over 10x what my father made, which I certainly do not.

Housing as an investment and the main source of most people's net worth is such a mistake

If boomers could math they would be embarrassed. Lead poisoning ftw!
