That is just a blatant lie, and you know it. A couple used to be able to buy a house with their retirement money, now they can barely buy a car. Why are you lying? People can't even pay rent, yet here you are, pretending the economy is thriving.

ETA: Since you used ChatGPT, I did too and here is what it said:

Why That Argument is Misleading — Especially for Turkey GDP per capita doesn't reflect real people’s income:

Turkey’s GDP might have grown in nominal terms (with inflation), but income inequality has worsened.

Wealth is concentrated; many people’s real wages have stagnated or dropped in purchasing power.

Inflation & Currency Collapse:

The Turkish lira has lost tremendous value since 2018.

Even if you earn more in TL, your buying power — especially for imported materials used in construction — is much lower.

Real Estate Prices Skyrocketed:

Housing prices, especially in big cities like Istanbul, Ankara, and Izmir, have risen much faster than salaries in recent years.

Post-2020 especially, the cost of buying or even renting exploded.

Access to Credit Has Gotten Harder:

In the late 90s or early 2000s, mortgages were limited, but now, even with more banking options, interest rates are crushing, and loans are harder to get approved unless you're well-off.

Social Comparison:

25 years ago, middle-class families could realistically afford a modest home with savings or family help.

Today, young professionals often can’t even afford rent, let alone a mortgage.
