You are like 40 right?

You are old enough that 50k made by 2 people was enough to break into the market, by the time you reached house purchasing age.

10 years in the workforce was enough to buy a 1 bedroom condo at 2xxk 10 years ago.

10 years in the workforce is not enough for the 5xxk+ required for a 30 years to buy a one bedroom currently.

Housing inflation is grossly larger than wage inflation. This is absolutely harder for younger generations. There’s mathmatical proof.

I know you are successful at what you do, and I’m not trying to take away from that, but move your EXACT situation 10 years later and your life would be substantially more financially difficult.
