I'm sorry, who's high horsing here exactly? I thought it was a poignant article about the general anxieties that myself and my peers feel. I'm well off right now being in tech, but nearly all of my friends who aren't are debt-averse so don't want to mortgage their future to go back to school. Making it in king county which is the only place say a paralegal can think to make more than $40k in the state is fucking difficult. The jobs that pay well are all in the denser areas, which are hugely expensive. People are moving there because there aren't many opportunities in rural communities - you have to be in a major metro area. Houses aren't places to live for those that own them, they're investments that they will fight tooth and nail to make sure the value of which never goes down. The #1 rule of buying property within 2 hours of where jobs are - already own a house. There's no bottom rung of the ladder anymore.
