Owning a house in a HCOL area is one of the luxuries I was talking about. Any million dollar asset is a luxury.
There is a fundamental difference between working to survive and working because you don’t want to move out of your NYC brownstone or further from lake como or whatever the fuck.
I wouldn’t say a house is a luxury. It is a necessity.
Depends on the house.
Really the whole concept of renting is exploitative.
Yes, commodifying necessities like housing (food, water, etc) is a fundamental means of exploiting people. Rent is just one aspect of a much larger pyramid scheme based on human deprivation.
Then sell the house.

A house is a necessity, yes, but not a house in the middle of San Francisco or New York.
That actual solution is making housing affordable in San Francisco or New York or any other city.
