    Was renting a really nice 1 bedroom apartment on the riverfront a few years ago, but was paying like $1600 a month which is a ton considering this isn't NYC or anything like it. Felt like I was spending too much money on something that ain't mine. Plus, I was limited to doing things to it, like I couldn't paint the walls. On top of that, I had neighbors who would complain about hearing music and the TV through the walls. Pain in the butt.

    Then I went and bought a brand new home. I pay a lot more now, especially with property tax. It's mine and I'm building equity too. Plus, I can turn up the TV and music as loud as I want.
