I rent. I am not middle class (I’m in the top 20%, and hey, I only need a 30% raise to get to the top 10%, and a 70% raise to the top 5%, and a 330% to leave you plebes behind and join the 1%), but the upper class is making sure that I’m never going to get near them or threaten their power.

Remember, though! Every [real estate] market is unique!
