My parents bought their house for $74k in 1985, with a $25k deposit, paid it off in the 1990s.

Its valued at a little over $1.5 million now.

Boomers had it so incredibly easy when it comes to this shit lol

eth will be worth $400k by 2060, which is the same timeframe you're talking about
what's the difference?

>inb4 "EVERY boomer got to buy a house, crypto is a niche investment"
every *burger* boomer, aka sub 1% of the world. whereas crypto is available worldwide
if you want to whine about the US having it worse, consider any amerilard can scratch his ass and get $300k/y copypasting javascript code in big tech. burgerland is still easy mode
