ugh, very much same. pre-pandemic, my partner and I were saving for a minimum down payment (3-5%) on a house... and now houses cost over twice as much and interest rates are super high, easily doubling the amount we'd need to save while tripling the mortgage payments we'd need to make.

but hey I guess at least we have enough in savings to partially pay for a car when our old-ass corolla finally bites the dust.

yeah, we're at the point of our almost 20 year old rav4 crapping out too.. we're supposed to go look for a newish car this weekend but part of me really doesn't want to spend the money because it feels like it's only going to put us even further out of reach of a house

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in !the_dunk_tank@www.hexbear.net, it's a great comm.

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer
