This seems to miss a large percentage of the population which live in mega-citys. People arn't putting out a million dollars for "McMansions". A million dollars buys you an 800 sq ft 1 bed 1 bath condo. We are accepting the "brick shoebox", and we are paying through the nose for it.
Edit: And, at least for me, moving far away where its cheaper is not an option. My children will know their grandparents, and not because they make a 4 hour drive each way once a month or some such.
- ctdonath 13y agoOh, I'm not missing that scenario. My point still applies in full. Too expensive is too expensive, not just in cost but in risk and lost opportunity. Better maybe to talk the extended family into moving somewhere far less costly.
