go on craigslist and see the rents some of these landlords are asking and tell me if renting is acceptable as a longterm strategy. sooner or later some one needs to buy instead of dealing with landlord every month.
home prices have far far far outstripped the growth in income. Ricky Tan's premise that you can't afford a place because you are a lazy bum sounds logical; however, when there are engineers who can't even afford a place in this town then its not a matter of work ethics.
