Back in their era you could raise a family with multiple kids on one income. They went and both worked for decades only to find out that they can't even pass on their legacy/home to their offspring.


Great they are sitting on millions... but nowdays to get by the average husband wife each need 1.5 jobs. Does that really sound like a quality of life improvement?

My parents immigrated here so they could "keep what they worked for" yet it appears what they worked for isn't as much as they thought. They rarely took vacations or sick days and for what? I probably missed more school days then they did work days.


Sure it's better than the communist hell hole they came from but .... is this the direction we want to head down?


can the majority of 2.4M fit comfortably in SFH? Probably not even if we have 10+ living under one roof like many South Asians etc.

should 350sqft cubes be at least accessible, either renting or purchasing? if the govt and society wants a community, I think so
