I was on the verge of buying pre-Covid era. I was going to end up paying mortgage for 20/25 years. My plan was a small 2-bedroom bungalow, I was still considering then, that I was going to pay quite a lot for what I wanted... Covid happened, prices went to the roof and beyond... I'm not buying squat right now, no way... Prices remain just the same, it's funny when they go up they go all the way up as high as they can push it, when then come down you can't even feel they did.

I'm scratching 40s and I think my new plan is to go somewhere else... save for the next decade and move to Northern Africa, which I love and have ties to... Retire there and work remotely, or teach or a combo of those... I hope it works, even if it doesn't beats the crap out of grinding my whole life for a small pod in the west.
