My wife and I lived in a cheap apartment saving our money until after we had our first child, then we bought a house. That was 7 years because we DID wait till we could afford it.

This is how you do it, are you listening? I doubt it but here we go.

1 - wait until AFTER you’re married to have kids. That’s biological male and biological female. Hard concept apparently.

2 - graduate high school. Not college, high school. Lots of excellent opportunities out there that don’t require college. I don’t have a degree, and I’m retiring with no debt because I did both one, 2 and to follow…3.

3 - Get a job, any job and apply yourself. Other than 6 months off after back surgery I’ve always worked. I drove to where the work was when I had to. A 40 minute one-way commute was nothing. Drive something that gets 35mpg instead of the 20mpg truck you’d rather have.

Do those 3 things, life is much easier. Not easy, but easier.

In short, quit bitching and start thinking.
