I'm an older millenial and me and my cohort didn't have property in 2010. Took us to ~2015 to start having enough cash. Now I see people saying "that is rent is double my mortgage payment"! Not mine. Mine is still higher. Can't wait to have to re-sign with the higher interest rate.

Not a "boo hoo, my life is hard" thing, I see what side of the rift I managed to get on, but it's not totally rosy either for us late movers.
