This person has owned a home for a year. Ve has experience and obviously an authority on this subject.

Seriously though, servers do not appreciate in value. If they did and were scarce it would make a lot more sense to run than cloud out.

There are downsides to home ownership and significant risks, but I think it’s the most tangible path to wealth for the middle class. Not everyone is fit for home ownership as they move or value flexibility, but for those who can plan and own a home in thirty years it zeros out for the costs of maintenance, taxes, etc. It’s not quite like getting a refund check back for thirty years of rent, but it’s similar.
