Are hotels parasites too? When you lease a car, are the dealers parasites? How about short term rentals for traveling nurses. Are those parasites too?

If I own a house and have roommates, am I a parasite too?

Grow up man. Renting a home has advantages that people like me pay for.

The place I'm renting is in an amazing area that I would never be able to afford. My son goes to school in a nicer, safer area.

I can move out whenever I want to without worrying about selling my place.

When something breaks, 1 phone call and my issue is fixed.

I pay less than a mortgage and the money I save, I get to diversity my retirement/investment. Instead of dumping my entire asset in a home.
