but say i rent.. assume mortgage/rent same thing..

so i spend 15k/yr on rent,(a little over $1k a month) in 30yrs id have spent $450k in rent..

NOW assume a house with same mortgage, in 30yrs id have spent $450k in mortgage, EXCEPT i still have an asset worth at least $450k assuming 0% appreciation in 30yrs(which is impossible)

so tell me how renting is better..

its like flushing money down a toilet.. you are paying someone every month and you dont own shit.. while buying yeah im paying every month, but its still an asset...
