    You’re a troll right? Because I refuse to belive anyone could genuinely be this clueless.

      You make use of someone’s services, you pay for it. If you hate landlords, don’t indebt yourself to landlords. I started off with nothing, now I’m a homeowner.

      If I’m so fucking clueless, how come I have a mortgage and you don’t?

        Where did you live before you bought your house?

        Is that approach available to 40-something single parents working at McDonald’s?

          I lived in a basement suite, followed by a dump of an old house, before I found a slightly less dumpy old house to purchase in a rural area that most city folk would absolutely hate. This was all before the age of 20. Sold my old house about 7 or 8 years later to a younger man who had a very similar starting plan.

          Now I have a 5 bedroom house on two acres. It’s not in some heavily populated area, it’s out in the country and it’s affordable.

          Anyway, if you’re a single parent over 40 working at McDonald’s, you’ve made far too many bad decisions in life for me to be of any help.
