    As a programmer, making $70k a year (in Czechia), I couldn’t afford (according to the banks) more than $100k mortgage, so I got $100k from my parents (the house is $200k). And it’s in a small village of 2k residents. You get 4 times less space (and it’s a flat) for the same price in the capital. And it’s on the cheaper side, too.

    Or I could’ve gotten a small flat in a shithole that probably has black mold and will crumble to dust in 20 years. It’s bad everywhere.
