  • Trump wasn’t president a year ago, and it was the same back then. Besides that, the communities that aren’t supposed to be political tend to get a lot of political content, for instance every time Elon farts it gets posted to the technology communities. The only option not to get confronted with this is to block lots of communities and/or users.

    I really wouldn’t know if that last statement is true. We were only discussing housing, so not all of the basics. Also, like I said earlier, interest rates on mortgages were higher in the past. I would also consider this when comparing, because the interest can be more than total debt.

    But is it also the average household salary? Most boomers were single income. Then in the late eighties early nineties people realized that you could get higher mortgages in a double income, and as a result houses got a lot more expensive. Also, interest rates have declined a lot since the eighties, which also allowed people to borrow more.




  • Pick a study which fits you curriculum wise. It doesn’t have to perfect, as long as it’s interesting enough and it’s doable for you. If you’re lucky you’ll figure it out during your study years, otherwise you’ll figure it out after you start working. In my experience, people with a somewhat fitting education tend to stumble into a job they like. Also remember a job is just that, a means to pay for your lifestyle.
