Plus it'll go back up to where it was in a few months.
And you only need a credit score if you're applying for credit. Are you financing a major purchase in the near future? If not, your credit score is literally meaningless.
No Financing. House is paid off I have like 200k in stocks and savings.
Lemmy assemble. let's eat this rich guy
Let me tell you why I'm so lucky. In early 2013 I bought a 1946 Bungalow at 1400 sq with no basement for around $50k on a 15 year loan. I paid it off. Last year, my father-in-law died and left his house to his only daughter, my wife. It had an outstanding mortgage of $60,000 left on it. It's a 2100 sq ft colonial with attached garage and basement. I sold my house for over $200k and moved into my wife's childhood home. We paid off the remaining loan.
I am fortunate and got lucky on the housing market. I make [redacted] (slightly above national average )a year. My wife took the year off, but is a teacher. We are NOT rich, but very lucky. I live near Detroit, where the cost of living is lower and that helps too.
Don't worry, I am pretty sure it was a joke. But if someone is buying up property for the sole reason of renting then we will be picking up the pitchforks.
Edit: On a unrelated note, I would be more careful about sharing my wealth and salary details to a digit on social media. You can never know when it might backfire in future.
I edited it. Thank for the tip.
Amazing! Good for you. People shouldn't attack the few people that get lucky. ❤️
