It sounds like you are now where i was then :-)
Go have fun and buy a house with a chick (or guy depending on your sexual orientation) when you get a bit older and ready to settle down.  |
Similar story.. When I was single I lived in a penthouse condo in midtown Toronto. I enjoyed stumbling home a few blocks for a night cap with a cute girl... Loved being able to just lock up and go on extended trips without having to worry about it.
I also noticed that because it was located near all the action my condo became the meeting spot on weekends for all my friends that lived further out of the city and on quite a few occasions I had great impromptu afterhour parties with people that my friends and I met at the bars... I had the time of my life in that condo and its appreciated almost 50% of my purchase price. I rent it out now and plan to hold on to it for a long time.
I guess it all depends on your personality - are you a homebody that likes to curl up with a good book on a Saturday night or are you a frolicking womanizer that loves to have a few drinks on a Saturday night and chase some tail?
I'd definitely go for the penthouse condo lifestyle especially living in Montreal. I just think at 25, there are just too many hot Montreal chicks for you to be banging and going on trips with instead of spending time dealing with a house. BANG THEM ALL. You have lots of time down the road to live in a house.
