Yes. And yes, I'm serious.

To clarify that.

I’m not here to advise anybody anything. I can’t do that morally and I certainly can’t legally give financial advice.

But what I can explain is reality. Mortgage literally translates to “Death Charge” and is designed to be a hold over you for life.

Not everybody has the freedom to be free, but more and more people are choosing not to own homes or acquire debt.

It’s free choice, but make it with full knowledge.

If you’re a millennial travelling the world debt free, don’t look enviously at Boomers with huge houses and even larger mortgages stuck in the fiat system and unable to travel due to their debt.

The fiat system is a debt system so by taking on debt you are supporting the fiat system not replacing it.

Been trying to convey to my friends that a house isn't a good investment for nearly a decade. An exception if it is also a farm and can generate revenue to pay for itself.

Agreed:

Land > House

I find it resonates better if converted to gold equivalent value. People just seem to get it easier

If anyone wants moral/financial advice best ask me imo.

Should I have bought "The Smarter Web Company" stock instead of "Game Stop" ? 😂 😂 😂

Don't get me wrong, as someone who has retired at the age of 42 and have been debt free aside from a mortgage on my home, I abhor debt and understand that more than anyone. But everyone's financial situation is different and saying a penny of debt is equal to slavery is nothing but hyperbole.

Sure, living in a van and travelling the world is a great and free life style. But some people want families and a home and land for their children to grow up in. Who is more enslaved in that regard then, the renter or the home owner with a mortgage?

Everything is relative in the end.

The cost of a penny of debt is a contract that has the same legal enforcement as a debt of $1M.

That is the point I am making here.

If you actually borrow $1 from your mate, he is not going to take you to court to recover it, neither is a firm going to spend a lot of effort recovering a few hundred dollars of debt.

But they could if they choose and they could force you into bankruptcy if you are unable to pay.

If I have $100 in collateral for my $100 dollars I am in debt for, I get liquidated if I am unable to pay, not pushed into bankruptcy. That was my original point.
