It’s borderline ridiculous that we’re even having to state that in 2026, nobody does.


Unless you're selling it to kids, of course.
And that same $80,000 invested at the S&P historical rate of return of 10% would have been worth over $3,000,000 by 2024. That's not a very good argument.
People do and did a lot you don't seem to want to do in order to get ahead though. Do you not see that you're making our point for us?
I'm gen-x and my first home was NOT

quote:

A nice 3/2 in a safe neighborhood near good schools. It's a little under 1800 square feet with composite floors and cheap, builder grade cabinets to keep the costs down.

A perfect starter home that a young couple starting out can use to build equity before expanding their family.


It was not nice. We called it the "slanty shanty".
It was not in a safe neighborhood.
It was not near good schools.
It was less than 1300 sq feet.
But it did have cheap materials.

What it was, was ours. Then we sold after 6 years and bought a little nicer. Then 4 years later sold and bought a little nicer.

Then we lost our asses in 2008 and basically started all over again.

Fast forward almost 20 years and we are finally in a decent home.

I'll be the first to agree that it's hard right now, but posts like this just piss people off because you act like no one else has ever had a tough time.

You frickers want it all right away and have unreasonable expectations. But hey, at least you aren't homeless, living in a car that didn't run for six months like I was when I was 18.

So, tell me more about how tough things are for you.

Is this what you libs were saying about the Jan 6th Fedsurrection? Just checking. But go ahead and waste everyone's time with denials, obfuscations, and misdirection. That's usually your M.O.
Just a point about your use of the term gerrymandering in the OP. The prior districts were the result of gerrymandering. The new district maps fix that.
Prices at the pump are not based on how much the gas currently in the underground tanks cost. It's based on how much it will cost to refill those tanks.

What part of the constitution allows colleges to receive money from the federal government?

I agree with you in principle but this is what you get when you exceed the enumerated powers of government- more government.
Maybe they will double down and say the numbers will be revised downwards and we can all laugh and point again in a few months.
Some people here don't know the difference between a plug in hybrid and a regular hybrid. They both have batteries that recharge on deceleration and braking, but the plug in versions have a larger output battery that can provide an all electric range.

They both have their place and are good options depending on your drive. My wife has a plug in hybrid 3row SUV and hasn't filled the tank in almost a month, but she plugs it in every night. One of my cars is a regular hybrid full sized sedan that I bought new 12 years ago. It has 250k miles and still gets 43 mpg.

The non hybrid version of the car got 26 mpg mixed, so a quick estimate is that I have saved about $11,000 in fuel costs. The key was that the car was only $1500 more than the non hybrid version when I bought it.
Am I the only mother fricker who hasn't been to that island?

Hey I remember that guy.

Maybe you can tell us about the glory days of Billy Cannon next.

How many of those 315k votes were for Biden?


In Fulton County? Lol. All of them.
I like options, so a plug in hybrid with 30 miles of all electric range before switching to hybrid mode makes sense for my commute. I've had to fill up once in the last four weeks and get 450 hp to play with when I want it. This is the second hybrid I've purchased. The first was not a plug in hybrid, but got 45 mpg when I had a longer commute. It is a 2014 with 225k miles and is still running strong.

I've had nothing but great experiences with hybrids.
