This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

If they saved enough for a house in three years, either they have a highly lucrative job or they’re in a market where homes are cheap or some combination of the two.
3 years is definitely a good amount of time to get a solid down payment. It's not like a 25-year-old is going to buy a house with cash.
Are you suggesting Anon lied???
Depending on what anon does it's possible. The flag is Portuguese you could pick up a one bedroom apartment for 3 years wages if you don't live in Lisbon. Or in Lisbon if you have a good job.
Either they work oil wells in bumfuck South Dakota or they are a SRE with a Silicon Valley company.
Or they don't live in the US at all. Wild concept, but entertain it for a second
It was a shitpost my dude. Their country flag is literally visible in the OP pic.
I wonder if the Portuguese flag was some sort of clue hmm
They spelled 1973 single wide trailer wrong.
My area, you can get a house for 100k, a better one for 200k. If you're saving most all income from a 75k job like programming, seems reasonable to be able to afford a house in that timeframe. But that's with very very little spending and still pretty cheap houses.
Where do you live that houses are 100-200k and programmers make 75k?
2015
The UK? Sounds about right in GBP.
