    You’re being a cheerleader at the edge of rapids butthurt because your chant of “be aggressive” isn’t actually helping the drowning people feel better.

      a cheerleader at the edge of rapids butthurt

      This reference flew right over me mate. Also, I never intended anyone to “feel” better, but to do better. A concerning amount of pro-landlord hysteria out here to be quenched, how people perceive it is really not my prerogative.

          Being “I’d much rather pay my dear Lord more money in exchange for doing literally nothing to improve my situation” is exactly what the Lord you love so much wants you to do.

          Why you seem to be mad at me who’s at least trying to help you out, instead of the leech that sucks the money out of you is something only pro-landlords will understand apparently.

            You absolute bell end. Read what people are saying. No one wants to pay a land lord, everyone wants to own a house. They literally can’t. All your “try hard” chanting doesn’t make it any not possible.

            You’re not trying to help out anyone. You’re the guy telling the person who’s depressed due to chemical imbalance to “just try being happy” then you get confused when they tell you it doesn’t work like that and insist it does.

              Next time I want to say something, I should just ask what visions you’ve been having lmao. Like literally your every comment is about a comment you think I made, yet I never made one. Actually delusional

                I can see how someone who lacks reading comprehension and basic understanding of the topic they’re speaking on may think other people are delusional. You’re in a world you don’t understand and lack the comprehension to grasp it, I get that, so I’ll help you by spoon-feeding it.

                You said:

                Why you seem to be mad at me who’s at least trying to help you out, instead of the leech that sucks the money out of you is something only pro-landlords will understand apparently.

                Are you trying to help people out? Really? Kinda like you telling a depressed person to “just be happy” would be helping out? What help do you think you’re providing actually? Telling people that owning a house is better because you’re not throwing away rent money? Everyone knows that it’s not a choice they want to make, it’s simply the only option they have.

                  I still don’t know where you got this one from mate.

                  Telling people that owning a house is better because you’re not throwing away rent money?

                  Yep

                  Everyone knows that it’s not a choice they want to make, it’s simply the only option they have.

                  Sure, the defenses seen here in this thread truly reflect upon that lack of options. I’m sure no one will forcefully drag you out of your comfort zone, as that might actually improve your life. And that’s scary. But earlier you said you were 16yo, so I’ll give you a few years to grow up and perhaps something I’ve said stuck in your mind and helps you to become a better person, instead of this excuse blabbering coward.

                    I still don’t know where you got this one from mate.

                    It’s because it requires critical thinking. I need to spoon-feed harder. Ok. People can’t control chemical imbalances in their brains, and that’s what drives depression. People can’t control their socio-economic situation when they are trapped in the cycle of poverty.

                    Telling someone to “just be happy” when it’s not that easy is just like telling someone to “buy not rent” when again, it’s not that easy.

                    Yep

                    Well, I’m glad we figured out why you think you’re being helpful. News flash bud, it’s not helpful. It’s about as helpful as telling someone to be rich because life will be better with more money.

                    Sure, the defenses seen here in this thread truly reflect upon that lack of options. I’m sure no one will forcefully drag you out of your comfort zone, as that might actually improve your life. And that’s scary. But earlier you said you were 16yo, so I’ll give you a few years to grow up and perhaps something I’ve said stuck in your mind and helps you to become a better person, instead of this excuse blabbering coward.

                    Aaaaand there it is. Spoken like a person who has never had to struggle. People live in towns where they have no money, no jobs available, and have crippling debt. Some have disabilities that limit their options. Some are single parents with just enough hours in the day to keep their heads above water. They struggle and fight to survive every week. It’s not that they don’t want to be uncomfortable, every day is uncomfortable, if you had ever actually struggled in life you would know this. But not every person in a hard situation can simply work hard and get out of it, that’s an extremely naive worldview.

                    Also I never said I was 16 yo and I said I own a house. So not only do you lack critical thinking, knowledge of the topic you’re speaking on, and reading comprehension, but you’re also delusional lol. Look at my comment history. Please link the comment where I said I was 16. But I loved to have that insight on how you would talk down to a younger person, really shows your character. For context, I’m in my mid 30s, and actually spent my younger years in the USMC. Oh and like I said I own a house, and make good money, but I grew up dirt poor. Like hunt for food not for sport kinda poor. A struggle you clearly have never faced.

            You aren’t trying to help.

            I understand you aren’t trying to hurt, but you aren’t being useful in a discussion about traditional Western housing options.

              Even though admittedly the credit rating system sounds ass, I really can’t fathom anyone who’s down for saving just a bit not getting a loan for, say this 22k 1301sqft house in bumfuck ohio. Like if you can’t then you are the outlier.
