Mfer I'm about to move back with my parents specifically so I can buy a house. Even cutting back luxury spending (read: eating more than rice every night), my rent takes up too high of a percentage of my monthly income for banks to loan me money. I've managed to save up enough cash for a 20% down-payment on a modest house, but banks still won't loan the other 80% because half of my paychecks go directly to rent.

But I'd expect nothing more intelligent from a property-flipping UTK alumni. This kind of stupidity is exactly what that university spits out.

You should be getting 5 full time jobs, thats what our parents did, thats how they got it so nice! Bootstraps boy!!!!!!
