Not to mention the mountain heaps of cons tied to renting apartments. Things break, maintenance isn't going to be there to fix it. Air quality issues, mold, dust, etc. If you get bed bugs or dust mites good luck, there's no easy solutions. Utility bills to keep track of. If you live in a mobile home subdivision you have to meticulously take care of your lawn and appearances.
Me? I live day to day, debt free, no bills except a gym membership for showers and a phone bill for gps and data. Everything about my life is better than a renter, and the only thing homeowners have on me is assets that will get more valuable over time. But while they invest in assets and play the waiting game, I'm out having a better time than them. Spending the prime of my life enjoying it instead of waiting for retirement, when I'm too old to fuckin walk around freely.
Plumbing? Lmfao stop.
Yeah lol how do you wash yourself? In your car? In the river when you camp? Public rest stops? How bout when you poop, do you prefer not to use plumbing? Do you poop in your car since you don't live there?
I'm fascinated.
You can take a shit in public bathrooms lol. It's the reason you want to park in places that are open 24 hours. I've never had an issue except one time and I peed in a water jug. No big deal. You can shower every day at gyms and truck stops.
I like to shit shower shave in my home, not be one of those brush my teeth in the truck stop types. It's not the worst, it's just not the best. And where do you keep your valuables? Your guns? It seems unsafe and unsanitary tbh, why not have a home you can live in? That you can relax in when you're not working or w/e it is you do?
You can buy a shower at a truck stop for $12 and get a private bathroom to shave in. Just shave once every couple weeks, grow the beard out so you don't look like a pussy to women. When you say stuff like it's not the worst not the best, you're getting blindsided by the actual weight of the argument, because yeah, it's a bit nice to have a private bathroom within walking distance every morning as opposed to a drive to the gym or truck stop. And yeah, you have to pay $12 to shave. But let's put all of this on the correct scales because let's say it takes 10 minutes of your day to get there, 6 miles of driving, and a $12 cost.
"All that for a shower?" you murmer.
But think about it. If you break it down the other way paying $1800 rent bills with utilities, that's about $70 a day. So let's break that down. $70 is about 3 hours worth of labor.
$12 is a half an hour. That's an extra 2 1/2 extra hours of labor per day that you have to work in order to get to walk to the bathroom instead of drive. That's 16-17 hours a week extra. It's insane when you break it down.
