I listened to him the other night and he just went off on someone. They should have a "best of" show when they only play his 20 minute rants.

who only put their winnings back into the lottery or some such...then wind up bankrupt.
Next thing you know your daughter's knocked up and there's money missing from the dresser...I've seen it a thousand times.

I've only got a truck payment right now...

I'm debating on buying a house, but I'm not sure how I'll like a mortgage payment. The way I figure it though, is that it's better than just throwing money away on rent.

depending on the house, the location, and how much you like working full time.

If you are in a good job you like and can grow with, have the 20% down payment, and find something you like. Go for it.
I like my house, it is almost perfect for me except the lack of garage or backyard. The reason I hate owing a home is I hate my job. If I were simply renting, I could pay some exit fee and walk away from everything else.
If you'd have to do a 3% fha loan for the house, don't do it. PMI sucks.

Down payment is what's going to get me...

I've got until the spring to live where I'm at, but I've got to make a move soon. I really wouldn't mind being closer to work anyway, and Greenville has a lot more going on for me than Clemson does at this point. I've just been having to weigh the pros and cons of owning vs. renting, and as of now I feel like buying is the way to go.

I would LOVE to throw money away on rent.

Rather than throwing money away on a water heater repair, door jamb rot, paint, garbage disposal is clogged again....grass needs cutting, hedges need trimming...
etc.

Working on old run down #### is a pain.
I'll be dead before its ever paid off, but I don't really care. I'll probably sell and buy something else anyway before then.

money off a house. I don't have to do any of that out of the house stuff at this time and really want my place sold before stuff starts to go bad.

therapeutic. However, I can see where a lot of little stuff could get really aggravating in the long run.
