3 years and anon came up with enough to buy his own house in cash. Im thinking anon is a drug dealer or a very good prostitute.

I actually have an engineering friend who did this and he did it in 2 years. Dude had no life, but he put a full down payment on a 750k house in two years. So I guess technical jobs just pay well enough

Thats a down payment, anon bought that shit straight cash. You figure the average down payment is 20% so.. 150K+ for your friend, thats no chump change either. Does he stay out late at night, maybe looks frazzled all the time?

There are decent rural homes you can get for 200-300k within range of civilization in more places than you think

There's also still 100k-200k properties in cities if you don't mind anything left on your porch being stolen

An FHA loan is only 3 percent, about $25,000

This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
