Here's an article/analysis that instead used years of life required to buy a house [0]. The ranking looks pretty similar.

I just gave away upwards of a mil usd, I have a tiny net worth remaining. No home etc, except a paid off vehicle which will be donated.

Preparing to depart consciousness. Cut contact, move, then request a quiet passing while alone. I’m relieved. Farewell.

I'm sorry you're there. Good luck.

Say this, "God, if you are real, show me."

I’m far beyond that. Already saw eternity (to whatever degree it can be shown to a mortal) over two decades ago. Being shown a glimpse of infinite fear/pain and infinite pleasure as divergent paths of existence changed me, not for the better in terms of leading a meaningful life. I’ve been dreaming of being dead since then.

I am very thankful and relieved now that the end is in sight.

Me and my girlfriend recently moved back to our childhood community from a larger city in Sweden. We bought a house for less than a 10th of what my work friends bought theirs for.

There are many benefits living in a big city but this is probably one of our best financial decisions. Yes we could keep our salaries as well, I know it's not possible for everyone.

Well, this will soon become the only option, to move to the rural areas.

Before you could live with 1 income and buy a decent house and have a car. Today you can be 2 but have hard problem even buying a house?

Who’s or what’s the blame? I have my opinion and thoughts about that, but it’s for another day.
