What's the point of all this technology if it can't provide you with affordable housing?

The point is to keep us all busy until we go extinct. I can't wait. Antinatalism gang rise up. Or don't, we're winning either way. Eternal nothingness is heaven, therefore existence is hell.

But seriously stop shitting up the board with coomer bait.

Set your expectations

>get hired for a standard janitor job for $16/h
>do work 40 hrs a week
>upkeep cost of $1500/m due to rent/food/utilities
>put $800 into savings accnt each month
In 1 year, you've saved up $10K

In 5 years, you've saved up $50K (excluding all the interests you've gained, excluding all the pay increase, skill increase, etc)

Thats your down payment on a house right there. You can now get a $200K house with $50K down payment (~25% of the house cost). Then you pay your house off over the next 20 years, while starting a family and living a comfortable life.

Thats a fucking janitor. Anyone making 5 figures can buy a $200K house in <5 years if they save up.

Technology is masking the decline

>>106114443 (OP)
There's plenty of affordable housing. You've used technology to watch Netflix to propagandize yourself into believing you must live in a trendy urban center and that life isn't possible anywhere else. You can have a house, you just don't want a house that won't make your fellow normie consumers jealous.
While you are coming up with endless excuses to justify your 'sell low, buy high' lifestyle, people your age but far more intelligent than you are buying homes in smaller communities for pennies on the dollar. While you're thinking of excuses, they're finding solutions. There is no technological solution for you because there's no tech solution for being stupid.

>>106114580
ain't clicking that

>>106114628
And nowadays with Starlink, you can live anywhere in the world too, with access to highspeed internet and a mailbox somewhere nearby, any place in the world can deliver any goods/services. Its literally that easy. Combine that with a cheap car, you can afford to live in your own home at almost any budget.

>>106114580
Okay, now try Australia, but 1 AUD = 0.65 USD currently so I'll double your budget to 400k:

https://www.erieri.com/salary/job/janitor/australia

Australia's minimum wage is $23 isn't it? Whats the janitor pay like? $30/h? So thats roughly double what US janitor could make. 40 hr /week prob gets roughly double pay. Housing/utilities prob cost double, so that evens out. So instead of $10k/y saving, its prob $20K/y saving. In 5 years, thats $100K in savings(excluding any increase in pay, any job advancements, zero skill labor)

So $100K is spent on downpayment on a house of $400K, a 25%. Am I missing something that you're trying to point to but Im not able to understand?

>>106114443 (OP)
The affordable housing technology is called "concrete". It's a kind of artificial stone made of slaked lime, sand and water. After mixing, it remains fluid for a time, and you can pour it into a cast, but after a few hours it solidifies, and becomes very durable and weather-resistant. You can cast whole buildings this way, or cheaply manufacture rectangular panels that can be easily assembled into buildings.

>>106114443 (OP)
>if it can't provide you with affordable housing

Look, you couldn't even pay most Australians to even live there, never mind locking in a job that will let you repay a mortgage.

>>106114472
And honestly, if you have zero skill, then you should go into construction or something. They pay like $30-50/h or driving a truck. If someone is that incompetent, the least they can do is carry stuff and drive right? Janitor is just for illegals/immigrants too

So in reality, you can get a house lost faster. Further, if you're driving or something, you can live in the car or a van or truck and not have to pay monthly rent. That saves a fuck ton of money. Especially if you're young and have no family obligation, this is basically how to make a living fast.

same here anon. although instead of studying and going to a university that would get me stuck with dept i went to work. Made some job hops, career progress, gotten more experience and saved up almost 60k within 5 years while living with my parents. Sadly only moved out barely before getting 30 but at least i own my place and i really like the appartment i got. It's really hard to buy a home and i know many friends who have it worse so i can't complain. At least financially stuff is going well for now.

>>106115163

It isn't.

Ironically why is everything else getting easier and cheaper to make except housing, it's a realistic conspiracy that anyone would have a hard time denying.
Everyone in the anglo world sans USA has gone balls deep into housing as their only investment in life, it's embarrassing

>>106115178
>>106115202
true. i could have gone cheaper but fortunately i earn enough to not resort to living among nogs and arabs. moving out a couple of years later was worth it to me. but even those shitty homes are almost sold as soon as they're for sale. Even for those people outbid each other. homes listed for 220k are sold for 260k or even more. it becomes a game of who can dump his savings the most

>>106115202
just work harder then your parents for less. its simple economics. as time progresses the poor get poorer and the rich get richer. all this progress is a good thing you just need to have that slave mentality. if we keep progressing your children might be able to only afford bread and water, the mark of true progress is when everyones living standards are reduced to barely survivable levels. we are maximizing resource efficiency by reducing living standards, its a good thing. we are literally saving the planet.

>>106115245
if you earn enough, then you can buy enough, seriously, I dont understand the whole "i cant buy a home". A fucking janitor working 5 years can do it. A high school graduate that lives with their mom for 5 years can do it.

It can. But you refuse to live in a pod.

>>106115253
No, it means you didnt earn more than your parents as the world improved in education, technology, work, pay, etc. Even though your parents gave you all the education, housing, food, electricity, utility for free.

You didnt improve. You let them down.

More people = less land.

Move OUT. As density increase, cost per area increases. Its not a hard to imagine why this would be.

>>106115275
so you really believe progress is supposed to make things get harder?

>>106115311
You didnt progress. You regressed. The world progressed. The world got easier.

>>106115304
its corruption, we have a lower then replacement birthrate. housing should never have been an issue. could you imagine if the government tried to move a homeless person in to a spare bedroom in youre house? they did the exact same thing but on a larger scale, the housing and land was given to us by our ancestors and the government took it and gave it to some stangers.

>>106115318
>You regressed
This is true.
How many zoomers even know how to change a door knob?

Housing should be a state monopoly. No more homelessness, no more squatters, no more speculators.

>>106115259
it doesn't mean it's easy. It's about thinking long term. Some friends i know are now renting a shithole barely bigger than closet and only just make ends meet.
But those went on more holidays, gotten a expensive car or stuck with student dept to pay off for 10 years. I's also a bit of luck. When you're done, the jobmarket can change and then the thing you studied for suddenly isn't lucrative. Also i forgot that on the housingmarket you have to compete with couples too, which have more to spend

>>106115333
10s of million of illegals were moved into the country by the last admin, in the US.
Tens of millions of illegals were moved into EU by the current EU government.

If you want corruption, then all you have to do is open your eyes wide and connect the dots.

Housing is more affordable than ever. HOUSES in SUBURBS away from NIGGER GHETTOS that are CLOSE TO YOUR WORKPLACE is what's a pipedream for most middle class people.

You can live in the middle of a forest in an amazing house for less than a third of what a white suburb house that's half the size costs.

>>106115360
>why should they learn
Indeed, why SHOULD they learn a skill if they can just pay someone else to do it for them?
Why should you buy a home when you can pay someone else to buy one and charge you to live in it?

>>106115425
You cant find a friend? A room mate in San Francisco? kek.

https://www.apartments.com/under-1300/?bb=w-hrxl6pvQwu5xisY

Here's a city right next to Seattle. Plenty of sub $1500 apartments. Hell, if you got a room mate, its $600/m split even for 2 bedrooms. I dont understand the issue. Are YOU people that helpless?

I dont think this is an issue of money, I think you're just functioning retarded. Like your IQ is probably in sub 90 or 80 IQ if you cant maneuver yourself in the world and find what you want.

All that wasted money that could've gone towards buying a home and renting that out afterwards.

>if you got a room mate
my parents bought their first house at 20 with a 10k down payment. they never had to bunk with roommates to make ends meet. is this a sign of progress? a single income cannot afford basic shelter any more. if we are lucky and we keep progressing by 2050 it will take 4 incomes to barely afford shelter! I love progress so much.

>>106115554
>@ 20
2 people
saving 2 years worth of money got them $10k
20 years ago, if the house was worth $100K, thats 10% down.

So your parents saved $2500 a year each on average for 2 years (after highscool/18).

Why dont you get a girlfriend/wife and save 2 years with $10K each year each doing janitor work? I mean if you have zero skill, janitor is the lowest job right? I assume you can get a better job than janitors.

i was watching this vid on the palisades fires, and the vlogger talked with a couple, where the wife had bought the house back in the day for $34k. Now it was like 1-2 million

>>106115539
>But I did and therefore did a much better job
