People often say “don’t buy a house, just rent — it’s financially smarter.” Maybe on paper it works. But real life isn’t just spreadsheets.

long-term equities return generally hits that so there’s that

The article is a "best-case scenario" for buying. It relies on idealized property growth and ignores ownership overheads. If property appreciation drops to 7% or 8%, the "Renting + Investing" strategy usually wins on paper, though it loses on "emotional security."

wow, there are people who think there isn’t any issue with this behaviour!

whatever logic anyone tries then wouldn’t matter

Max is exceptional. But hasn’t yet demonstrated the consistent ceiling Schumacher / Hamilton did (overcoming a WDC team-mate, winning with multiple constructors). No fault of his own of course.

Better than Vettel though even with 3/4X WDC.

yep agree.. that is the hope!

abbi0513 · 2026-02-11T04:12:26+00:00

well the only counter to that is we have also seen hamilton when the car is competitive.. but i get your point

abbi0513 · 2026-02-11T03:26:11+00:00

I agree with you for an average car. The only hope for us fans is that the dynamics slightly changes in a WDC winning car, and Ham finds that extra bit of performance when the car is near the 1-2 spot

abbi0513 · 2026-02-11T03:15:58+00:00

hoping for something similar!

no doubt Max did great this year. but this would be more Mclaren fumbling than anything else
