Home prices have dramatically exceeded inflation for a long time, so you're getting advice from people who reaped huge appreciation gains. Now housing prices are hitting affordabil…

Freezing a card doesn’t mean the debt is erased. They can still take you to collections.

This is sidestepping that the market for CS degrees has gone from new grads making more than median income to some of the highest unemployment among college grads. I hope this is t…

Disagree with logic that most will sell. Many people will incur high tax bills (if the property appreciated) or transaction costs to move. People who bought in the 2010s have mortg…
