I go to work every day to afford a house that I leave every day but my children will grow up in it and it will eventually be an asset that they inherit. I don't give a shit about my day to day grind. I give a shit about raising kids right and building a solid financial foundation for them so that they will hopefully do the same for their children.

I'm picking up 2-5 acre parcels in my area, need just 2 more. Each of them are going to be a wedding gift to my children so they can build their homes and remain close to the family. I've given up a lot to do this, but it will build deeper roots for my family that go beyond my life.
I agree, but you’re use case actually make some sense because you have a wife at home, and children. No point for single males to involve themselves in that until they find a decent healthy woman to stay at home, and/or have a child. Unfortunately, this is all but impossible for the average man now. No use in them wage slaving for that purpose. That’s not to say you can’t work, but don’t kill your self and work crazy hours only to trap yourself into something you actually never own until you know you’ve “locked” a decent woman down.

Yup. It’s all so tiresome. If you don’t have a good woman and children to stay at home, wage slaving to “own” an extremely overpriced home is retarded IMHO. If you’re a single male you’re better off with a little piece of land and buying, or building something super small and efficient to live out of. I understand this trend of single males traveling the country, and living out of their vehicles now, instead of working some bullshit job that only furthers to destroy themselves, and civilization in general.
That's a very good point. I'm single and instead of buying a house, rented and invested the diffefrence, shovelling all my saved money into the stock market. This has made me a multi-millionaire.
Now I can go anywhere in the world and rent somewhere to stay as I like.
I thought about the living in a vehicle but I think I prefer the Reacher lifestyle. Just hop onto a bus and fall asleep and wake up somewhere else.
