content: A neighbor of ours pays $3,500 a month rent and has no plans to do anything other than keep paying rent forever. I talk to him very little, but the times I have I have mentioned some of the places nearby that are easy commute where you can still get an acre for ~$50k - on a land contract even, so you only need $10k or so to get in and then put a trailer or double on it. And he is a worker, has some skills and all and could handle getting it done. Nope. Going to keep paying that fucking rent. Oh, and he has two trucks (One has to have cost $75k), Harleys, oodles of 4 wheelers, etc. Could easily dump a couple of toys and get himself a piece of land tomorrow. Nope, gotta have them toys. I have never understood that mentality.
