Congratulations on renting out of choice. That's a choice most renters never have.

Well it was partially out of choice and partially the stage of my life. I was in my 20s and working in fast food or between construction jobs. My career didn't really start until my late 20s/early 30s. I guess I didn't really consider buying as an option until later in life and my income in my earlier working years was inconsistent and a bit too low for my lifestyle.

That's one way to say that you couldn't afford to buy but you don't want to admit you were forced to rent.
