Maybe if I rent out every square inch of my lifestyle one day I’ll be able to own a bunch of 10 year old vehicles as well.

I like how the guy who didn't do any of the actual work to enjoy what he has today is on here lecturing us on how to get ahead. You look good on your condo purchase and your R8 and your GR Corolla because your dad gave you the life that allowed you to have any capital to purchase it in the first place. I mean, good for you man, I'm genuinely happy for you, but don't walk around here swinging some big dick that ain't yours.
A little humility goes a long way.

Honestly, and this might sound douchy or whatever, but really cars under 200k are a poor persons flex for the most part.
You’ve got a car anyone with 600 credit and above can afford. It’s not a flex.
If the cars people drove reflected their net worth, you’d see a lot more Mazda 2’s.

God damn, I was trying to have a debate on tax policy and now we're roasting Manic on his trust fund baby flexing.
Too funny. I like Manic, but damn, you can't flex and tell people how to prosper when your primary career is running a family owned Husky station.

People think I am trying to flex but what about all the people honda knows that have so much money they can buy a second house and leave it empty for most of the year. That's the real flex.

People owning a home they bought 25 years ago and not wanting to rent it out isn’t a flex.
Most of these properties were bought during a time when hoarding property for the sake of profit gain was not even the slightest consideration. They were purchased for… wait for it… recreation/leisure.
Most of these people and families who own these homes were at a stage in life decades ago where the extra 30-50k you might make was not worth it. So now, as families age, kids and relatives use the properties more, it makes it even less worth it to tie up a property with a rental etc. if you’re a family of 5, say 2 parents, 3 kids, and their 1-3 kids, what does this “extra” money get you besides the headaches associated with the rental?
Don’t get what’s so hard for you to wrap your head around people having properties full of their stuff, for their family, not wanting Joe nose beers to spend a night puking up bile in their ensuite.

Anything decent within 5 hours from the lower mainland is touching 700+ now
There’s been a few places I’ve been very tempted to look at property but frankly, without kids, I’ve always been of the mind that I’d rather go to a bunch of different places than have a single place you always end up at.
That’s also the downside which Manic doesn’t seem to understand in that for many people with “vacation” homes, they do -nothing- but go to those vacation homes during their time off. That is their vacations. They aren’t going to Disneyland or a cruise because the amount of time and maintenance to simply upkeep these properties.

Fuck I'm so sick and tired of hearing about White privilege cottages and immigrant hustler slumlords. Where is the love for people who just quietly paid down their (one) mortgage and try to raise their kids right? Where is the loooove?? Where are their fucking tax breaks??

You might be able to find a vacant lot on the island around the 300k mark these days, but it's going to be somewhere way out there like Zeballos, Tahsis, Port Alice, etc. Lol.
