Quite a lot in that article is, sadly, very relatable. And the person in the comments saying he made some sacrifices to save for a down payment. I’d hazard a guess and say people have differing levels when it comes to defining sacrifices.
Not really surprising that one person living in a 75 sqm place can’t save for a downpayment.
Unpopular opinion; not everyone can live in the city. Most big cities are like this and people need to commute to find affordable housing. I also can’t imagine spending 15000 on furniture after a break up.
Has anyone heard of the saying she quotes here:
“ze räich fir ze stierwen, ze aarm fir ze liewen” / “too rich to die, too poor to live” ?
