im not trading modern stock investing and better healthcare for the slightly easier to buy home and shitty bro culture work enviroments of the 80s personally. plus pre-pill in the middle of the aids epidemic all girls wanted u to wear a bag, no thanks.
Yeah, you wouldn't. You make significantly more than average. This whole conversation is premised on not making as much as either of us currently do.
You're also underestimating the actual scenario. In 1980 the average household income was 20k. The average home price was 47k. In 2010 it was 50k and 230k (right after the housing bubble destroyed house prices. Average home price was 280k from ~2004 to 2008).
If you want to make your point you should be avoiding home cost as a metric at all cost. It's probably the most convincing point against your position.
