i think im going to be moving back in with my mother pretty soon. goal is to put in 1-2 years saving up then i can buy a house already. sick of renting.
I see how these East Indian people do it over here it's crazy... they'll pool all their money and make it over here (legally) after one or two of them gets a degree. They'll buy a condo here while the breadwinners work and the others in the family start trickling into the country to study for their degrees, and it's almost always programming or medical school. Then eventually it'll be the entire family in a 2-3 bedroom condo, like 10 people. Everybody either working or studying, everybody's money pooled together, the grandparents and parents cook the huge communal meals and help keep all their expenses really low. Then once they start to succeed it gets kind of nuts. They'll start spreading out and buying their own houses, expensive cars, really expensive stuff. They go from living basically lower middle class to 2-12%'ers (100k-400k'ish incomes) in the period of 2-6 years. Then they sell that first condo for way more than they bought it for originally
