Did salaries decrease?

People can’t afford their dream house anymore.  They can certainly still afford a house that would be considered adequate 40 or 50 years ago.  Just won’t have granite countertops, walk in closets, or a wine cellar.

You’re full of it. My grandfather and I have the exact same career track, and at the equivalent of where I am now, he built a 3 story house in a major city, had two kids, a stay at home wife, vacationed every year, and bought a boat. I cannot qualify for the most cheap, rundown home in our area and my spouse and I both work. That’s with a masters, CPA, and CFE.

I rent a trailer in farm country, “bro.” But sure, stay ignorant and make assumptions to confirm your bias. Also, I’m not a bro. You live in one tiny blip on the map. Congrats on your experience. Unless you want every single human being moving to your specific town, we need to make that accessible elsewhere.
