Guy often tell me house is a force saving. By looking at the market today, full of scammer roaming around, and countless unsavoury characters and get rich quick scheme, jobless highly educated youth. I conclude buyhouse is not only a “forced saving” but also a “save yourselves”.

We often heard about a lot of highly educated youth had no jobs, underemployed, which is very bad today and getting worse day by day. What they often failed to see is it has been norms in the past, do you not know every scientist is borderline poor and bloke, Albert Einstein is not rich, Newton Isaac is bankrupt poor on south sea bubble, Wright brother is poor, we often read about how great are scientist on the textbook who create useful invention to improve life, but there is a catch, the textbook conveniently never mention the scientist personal wealth, it’s apparent textbook censor the information they do not want the kids to know all the scientist are living paycheck to paycheck and borderline poor, where they often has to wagecuck and sell their IP to the government to make a living, if they failed to create any IP they would be rejected just another bloke we often see on the street today, is homeless educated guy not often in the past?


At the moment it feels like we are hovering near record highs and a small correction to house prices should be coming in the next year or two. However it could vary wildly between countries, some countries might plateau, others might see a dip similar to the financial crisis where it took maybe 5 years to recover, but ultimately it seems buying a house is sound advice. What is the alternative? You will simply be paying off someone elses mortgage instead, so if you can get a mortgage and deposit together it seems very wise to make the leap into home ownership. However younger generations now seem further than ever from owning a house because they have risen so much in previous years and wage increases have not kept pace.
