I don't know if this is a problem? I am perfectly happy focusing on my career and my hobbies and not worrying about home repairs, insurance, taxes, natural disasters, etc.
It is more financially and emotionally rewarding for me to prep leetcode, solve software problems, etc. than it is to deal with home renovations, plumbing repair, etc. on a home.
Plus the flexibility of location is huge. I can follow the job market much easier if I am not locked into an address.
- gtaylor 5y agoNot everyone has the same goals or mobility as you. What you described is especially tough for families with kids.
- itake 5y agothe mobility will be less valuable, but I'd imagine if I had children, renting would give me more time to spend with them since I won't have to maintain a home.
