I see it as an opportunity, a generation ago here in Australia it seemed the standard thing to do was to save up, go buy a house somewhere and settle down there for a long period of time. Given how much harder that is to do now it encourages you to see more of the world, live in different places get a better experience. One of the problems in Australia is that a high immigration level keeps the market "bubble" going, makes the rental market hell to though :/
