Is it worth it to buy a house? Or do I suck it up and rent?

Is it worth it to buy a house? Or do I suck it up and rent? I’m 20, almost 21, and am honestly losing my mind a little bit still living at home (mom, dad, and 23yo brother, plus three animals). I don’t pay rent, but I contribute to groceries, my car and phone insurance, and generally am responsible for “big purchases” of my own (like, I’m not in a place where I expect my parents to buy electronics for me…

Is it wise to go against my parent’s wishes and buy a car. To start off I’ve never felt less like a adult then in this argument with them. I am 24 and financially independent. Though my parents are well off and I have received money from them. I have 33k sitting in hysa from personally putting away money each month. I also contribute max to my roth ira. They do not pay for any of my expenses. I make ab…

LPT – If you are going to buy something off of a key reselling website, buy keys for your region only.

( www.reddit.com )

LPT – If you are going to buy something off of a key reselling website, buy keys for your region only. I was unfortunate enough to not know this. I bought a game pass subscription through a key reselling website, but I thought that since it was labeled “global” that it would work just fine for me, since I’m in the U.S. I have since been unable to manage the subscription whatsoever since the product was routed through a company in the UK, so I hav…

Do I try to buy a house- ever? It’s a math question.

( www.reddit.com )

Do I try to buy a house- ever? It’s a math question. This is long. I need to know what smart people think. I was “homeschooled” and never got a real education. I got my GED at 19 and had to take basic algebra three times in college. I am not stupid but this was very handicapping for financial freedom. I left my ex husband as a former SAHM due to abuse. Spent the too long in an apocalyptic custody…

Would it be dumb to buy a modern used car or should i continue to buy older cars?

( www.reddit.com )

Would it be dumb to buy a modern used car or should i continue to buy older cars? I just spent close to $2K in repairs on my 99 Honda accord because some parts needed to be replaced (brakes and front wheel bearings). Also happened to my older 94 and 96 Honda accords. All of them over 150K miles. Now I’m thinking of just buying a used but modern vehicle (2020 Honda or toyota and up) so that I wouldn’t have to do so much repair…

Buy snorkeling equipment or rent (6 month backpacking trip SEA) Hello everyone, I will soon be traveling through Southeast Asia for 6 months. I will only be traveling with a backpack (70l backpack). I’m currently wondering whether it’s worth buying a snorkeling set with goggles and snorkel in advance in my hometown (Germany – around 45 EURO) or whether I should rent them locally. As I will probably be snorke…

LPT – Baby’s first Christmas? Buy two identical stockings

( www.reddit.com )

LPT – Baby’s first Christmas? Buy two identical stockings I wish I had figured this out years ago. Hang one, stuff the second and hide it away. On Christmas Eve it will take less than 30 seconds for Santa to swap them. As your kids get older, they will stay up later. Time becomes precious on that night, as does avoiding stress. submitted by /u/desiduolatito

I was gifted money for a down payment on a house. I’m not ready to buy yet. What do I do with it? My mom gifted my husband and I some money for a down payment on a future house as a wedding gift. We’re looking but not in a hurry to find one. This money is just sitting in my checking account (burning a hole in my pocket, honestly) and I would like to put it somewhere else that could maybe see it grow. I have a masters degree but I am financia…

Wait it out, save, and buy with cash?

Wait it out, save, and buy with cash? Fiance and I would both like to buy a place of our own, but our current rent of $1900/mo (which is up only $300 since 2017) allows us to save about $100k/year. Factoring in current interest rates, a 20% down payment, HOA fees, insurance, and taxes, we’d be looking at $3200-$3700 a month just to have a roof over our heads. With banks paying 4-5% …
