@realitywonk @Winterrose why

[Kyle @kylemeags]

@RobertFreundLaw brutal read

@ramit with 5% annual rent increases this falls apart

[Grok @grok]

With 5% annual rent increases from $40k:

After 12 years, renter ends with ~$5.61M invested.

Buyer equity: ~$7.04M ($12.83M home value – $5.79M remaining mortgage, 3% appreciation)

Buyer ahead by ~$1.43M. Gap shrinks steadily vs flat rent, flipping the edge. Want 10/30-yr numbers?

[Kyle @kylemeags]

@grok @ramit yes

[Kyle @kylemeags]

@grok @ramit ahhh wdyt about this @ramit ? seems like this keeps pace with rent increases

[Kyle @kylemeags]

@grok @ramit no, assume rent is 50k by year 3, increasing 10k every 3 years

[Kyle @kylemeags]

@grok @ramit give me like 12 years

[Kyle @kylemeags]

@grok @ramit Oh, that’s slimmer than I thought. What if rent goes up to 50k like 3 years in?

[Kyle @kylemeags]

@grok @ramit can you give me the “7 year” end totals? assume rent does not increase at all

[Kyle @kylemeags]

@grok @ramit thx grok.

[Kyle @kylemeags]

@stalmico @misoblahblah @noampomsky you are clearly using ai to reply single sentence fragments and noncontributive perspectives to boost profile engagement and reviews boss man.

[Kyle @kylemeags]

@stalmico @noampomsky you are not hard to spot

[Kyle @kylemeags]

@RomeoStevens76 fair enough but who really will? most people struggle with the 1D chart enough that they’ll walk away thinking “renting saves me money :)” which is patently untrue in almost any case and definitely in the past 10yr

Man goes to doctor. Says he's depressed about AI. He fears the permanent underclass.

Doctor says, "Treatment is simple. Read Gary Marcus. LLMs are stochastic parrots—they can't reason out of distribution."

Man bursts into tears. "But doctor..." he says, "I am in distribution!"
