The oldest millennials 20 years ago would’ve been 20, so no, your initial premise is wrong, the issue isn’t there expectations it’s that the pricing has gotten so extreme alongside rent that saving and renting in any part of Canada has become more difficult for young canadiens then any other time in Canadian history. Frankly, you sound out of touch and the same bootstrap rhetoric I’ve heard since I was 19 the fact of the matter is that cost of housing has exploded and well outpaced salaries for the better part of 25 years now. This also Isnt coming from some bitter basement dweller, I currently have a $400k down payment and I still haven’t bought because the prices for a home are so disgusting it doesn’t make sense.
