    Are you mentally impaired? Like diagnosed? I don’t want to make fun of you if you are, that would be mean.

    Stop putting words in my mouth and stop moving the goalposts.

    You said you have to pay 50% of your mortgage before a house adds to your net worth. That isn’t just wrong, it’s dumb as fuck.

    You said it takes years or decades to be able to break even selling a house. That’s not just wrong, it’s dumb as fuck.

    Whether or not is a smart idea for a particular person to buy a particular house or if it’s a good idea to invest in real estate vs something else are different discussions. I would bet it’s a bad idea for you because you seem unable to grasp even the most basic concepts.

    But if you want to pretend you’re arguing with someone who says buy a bunch of houses and leave them empty to make money and ignore all the braindead shit you said so you can tell yourself you’re right, go for it. I hope that attitude takes you far in life.

      Ahhh all of a sudden we’re admitting mortgages are both a risk and an initial loss in value, interesting.

      Good luck trying to win internet arguments with insults, I’m sure it seems natural to you.

      Doesn’t tell the audience what your own insecurities are at all.

        I’m not trying to win by insulting you, I’m doing that because you deserve it. You should feel bad about what you are. If you feel shame for it maybe you’ll keep your mouth shut like a good little halfwit instead of vomiting out bullshit that might influence others to make a bad decision.

        You can’t win so you keep putting words in my mouth. I never said mortgages are a risk and I absolutely didn’t say they were a loss in value. I’d say I didn’t know where you’re getting that, but it’s probably right out of your ass like everything else. I not saying now that there aren’t risks involved in buying a house but I never said there were, because that’s not what I’ve been talking about. I’ve just been refuting your nonsense about home equity as it applies to net worth and the rate you gain equity after buying.

        In case you forgot, once again:

        You said you have to pay off 50% of a house before it’s positive to your net worth. That’s not just wrong, it’s dumb as fuck.

        You said it takes years or decades to break even selling a house. That’s not just wrong, it’s dumb as fuck.

          My feelings are both hurt and my world shattered by you and your sockpuppet’s fax and logik as you continue to engage in this argument you don’t care about Q_Q

            For the sake of anyone in the future that might be subjected to the inane bullshit that issues from your deficient mind, I really hope you do feel that way. Sometimes valuable lessons are hard to hear. Good luck applying them, I’m sure everyone in your life would appreciate it.
