According to my spreadsheet projections, renting at $400 per week allows your assets to last approximately 17 years.

If you purchase a home for $325,000, your funds would last about 9 years; at $375,000, about 4 years; and at $400,000, only 1 to 2 years. The break even point where both renting and buying yield the same financial longevity, is around a $260,000 purchase price. If you purchase below this threshold, buying becomes the more financially sustainable option; if the purchase is above it, renting becomes more viable.

However If you buy a home for $325,000, you live in it without paying rent, but you still cover all ownership and living costs. Based on your financial model, your liquid assets would last about 9 years. At that point, you would have very little cash left but you still own the home.

If you then sell the home for $350,000 and lose 4% ($14,000) in agent and legal fees, you’re left with around $336,000. This new cash gives you a chance to “reset” and return to the renting scenario.

When you switch to renting from year 10 onward, you now pay $400/week in rent again, plus the same living costs you had before. Based on your spreadsheet’s cost structure and inflation, this $336,000 lasts for another 8 to 9 years.
Altogether, that gives you a total of about 17 to 18 years of financial runway: 9 years owning, followed by another 8 to 9 years renting after the sale. That’s roughly the same duration as if you had just rented from the beginning but with the benefit of housing security and stability in the first half.

I worked 3 minimum wage jobs at the same time and no bank would give me a loan for even a $30k shit shack in bumfuck Oklahoma so I slowly figured what's the point in working.

Now on disability and renting, and life quality has gone up by a hundredfold.

tldr but I did a similar calculation into buying a home. Basically with mortgage rates at 8% a $200,000 home would cost you $600,000 over 30 years. Or I could rent for 3 years and flush $90,000 down the toilet. I hate this gay earth.

OSA laws will protect you from dangerous information and keep you safe, everyone who is against it is a crime defender.

Meanwhile check out surveillance based pricing. You might find some things more expensive if you were a virgin but that can't be bullying because you can not admit why it could be happening ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

All doctors do is memorize a crazy amount of shit and vomit it in an exam, it doesn't require critical thinking or problem-solving skills. That's why so many saars make it to doctors, they just grind and grind and grind, if you watch for nutrition advice on the Internet every doctor will tell you something different since most just accept what was taught to them. They also hand out mind-altering drugs like candy despite most people having their lives ruined by them, some studies funded by pharma claim that those drugs are le good and they just go along with it.

Weed's effectiveness is extremely dependent on personality. For me it has been a miraculous wonder drug even long-term (while still being able to enjoy life sober mostly), but I know that not everyone gets the same effect from it. My friend that tried it just felt sluggish and confused. Alcohol in comparison seems to give people a much more common and uniform enjoyment.

By far the worst part about weed is the culture. Stoners at large are insufferable people that speak like baboons. As someone who has viewed the culture from the inside, the stereotype is real and finding reasonable people within it to discuss weed with is impossible. I think it might become better as weed becomes more normalized around the world.

Besides obvious stuff like curing anhedonia and making bad media fun, I use it as a way to inject an artificial dose of "meaning" into my life. If you feel like your life is aimless and wandering through side quests, weed puts you back on the rails of an illusory main quest that doesn't exist.

In the beginning, I did actually learn some important about myself and my life and where I should be headed, but after integrating those lessons with my life it became more of a purely recreational/antidote thing. It's also a great window into feeling like a kid again.

The only downside is that it kind of "borrows" dopamine from the next day. I don't know if it's due to having ADHD and having bad dopamine receptors, but the price you pay for getting high one day is that the following day feels notably dull. It's not that serious though, and you snap out of it the day after that.
