Corcoran Group CEO says Gen Z’s housing market struggles mirror what boomers faced 30 years ago: ‘Stop buying Starbucks coffee,’ she advises

The median price of a home in the U.S. is about $460,000.

Let's say by some miracle someone is able to put 20% down to avoid PMI so the cost is now $368,000. On a 7% 30 year loan your monthly payments will be $2,448/month.

So if those darn Gen Z would stop spending $80, literally every day, at Starbucks, they could afford a home.

People that say shit like this are wealthy enough to be completely out of touch with reality.

Sovcit went to court.

I'm in the U.S. and have a friend that serves court papers for the local county, and when people try this shit the court will often just enter a "not guilty" plea because it's a preliminary hearing.

When trial starts and they try this again, or they just don't show up, is where they start to get in real trouble. He said most of them will change their mind about being sovereign citizen after they start to spend some time in jail.

Vibe management

I remember companies doing this with cloud services.

CEO: Get rid of everything on-prem, the cloud sales person said cloud is cheaper!

First year cloud coats are more than 3 year depreciation of on-prem equipment

CEO: Huh...welp it's impossible for me to be wrong, so we're just going to say it was cheaper.
