Since I was 15.

Yet my parents think I'm a lazy piece of shit because I don't own a house as a 40 year old single mom. The "starter" homes in my area are like 500k.

41, started work at 14, 4 kids, no chance of getting on the housing ladder, rent is more than I was costed for a mortgage about 3 years ago but I did not meet their affordability criteria. Clearly could afford it, I been paying more in rent for 10+ years
