    If you’re renting, you either cannot afford a pet, or your lifestyle is too volatile to responsibly care for a pet.

      Lol clearly you never considered that some people would rather not own a home and prefer to rent. Or people like myself, who make plenty of money and live a comfortable life, but are still saving up for the now-required six figure down payment for a house with a somewhat reasonable since the housing market went ape shit. But sure, I’m too poor and irresponsible, let’s go with that.

        That’s called a “condominium”. All the benefits of a rented home, plus equity.

        “Land Contract” is another option. Unlike a rental, where the cost increases year after year, a land contract typically has a fixed rate. It’s more like ownership than renting, though.

        The concept of renting needs to die in a goddamn fire. All that money paid for housing should be turning into equity, not being pissed away on the “services” of an extortionate landlord.
