reply guys

majority of people my age I know who own a house were either handed down the house from their parents, got cut a sweet heart deal on the house from family, or had a parent pass away and gift them substantial money 

very few actually did it themselves tbh

this makes it infinitely sweeter when you do it yourself btw

Taking control of your own success and achieving your goals independently is truly rewarding. Keep up the great work!
