That is nice and all but it doesn't even show how inflated house prices have become. The Simpsons' house probably would've been $75k to $100k back in the late 80s, it'd be 500k to a million now.
[...]
You posted the same shit in the Seinfeld thread, die homosexual
Ignore and report. That string is essentially "lol u tk him 2 da bar?!" level at this point.
Boomers had it so easy , must have been nice
Yeah must've been nice getting literally beat by parents and teachers and getting drafted to go to some jungle then come back to the shittiest economic decade since the Great Depression and having to work 20 years until you hit the promised land and gave your shitheel children the literal peak of human civilization as their childhood before it starts crashing back to earth and the spoiled shit children constantly b***h and moan about how easy it was for their parents because they have to think about paying the student loans for their gender studies degrees they can't get decent jobs for instead of blowing it on toys and their furbabbies.
>$2000 a month in a small town >1 bedroom
I call bullshit. I live in a small town and I only pay $600 a month for a two bedroom apartment. I use to pay $3500 a month when I lived in San francisco for a shitty 1 bedroom. I work contract from home so I moved back to my hometown to save money.
He's a wojak avatargay, of course he's full of shit.
You need at least an associates degree to be a nuclear technician and safety inspector would be a senior position. Burns might be cheap but he wouldn't be able to get around inspectors and safety drills would be apart of those inspections. Homer was making more than $100k a year easily.
This dream is dead because we allow women to work and browns to fill oue country in droves
We more than doubled the workforce. What else was going to happen?
Not that it matters because the Simpsons changes its lore every season but the original story is that Homer convinced Abe to sell their family home and land (the one Homer grew up in) to give Homer the money to afford the house on the condition that Abe be allowed to live with the family (they put him in a home 2 weeks later).
As a homeowner the mortgage isn't what makes buying and keeping a home expensive; it's the down payment. With a large enough down payment you can get a mortgage on a nice house cheaper than what rentoids pay each month.
This
Pre-divorce, I paid about $1700 a month for a mortgage on a 3 bed house in a major city. Now, post-divorce, I pay $2000 a month to rent a 1 bedroom apartment in a small town
>$2000 a month in a small town >1 bedroom

>In order for the Simpson family to purchase the home, Abraham Simpson II sold his old house and wrote Homer a check for $15,000, allowing Homer to make the down payment on the house.[2] Ned Flanders purchased the property for $101,000 and rented it to the Simpsons when they fell behind on mortgage payments.[3]
"A FICTIONAL SHOW THAT HAS NO LAWS OF ECONOMICS MEANS YOU SHOULD VOTE LEFT! SO MORE ILLEGALS CAN COME IN AND WORK FOR LESS THAN MINIMUM WAGE TO STAGNATE POOR PEOPLES WAGES, AND USE PUBLIC SERVICES WITHOUT PAYING TAXES!"
Homer Simpson started out as a technical supervisor at a nuclear power station, and became the plant safety inspector in Homer's Odyssey.
We also know that, per Lisa's First Word, Homer couldn't afford the house on his own; Abe had to sell his own house and move into the retirement home in order to help Homer afford the down-payment.
>"Let the bears pay the bear tax, I pay the Homer tax" >"That's homeOWNER tax"
Homeowner tax isn't even listed. I hope someone got fired for that blunder.
Buying a house is still easy af. Literally just get a basic 3/2 starter for like $275k. You can put down the minimum and your down payment will only be $10k, throw in closing costs we're talking $12k or so. Who the frick can't save $12k over a couple of years? Whining about how hard getting a house is is some whiny r/antiwork shit
>wahhhhh its not in muh trendy metropolitan libtard area
Rentie, in literally like 99% of cities you can find little starter homes in the burbs for less than $300k. I'm literally just zillowing rando metro areas in the south and finding plenty

By all means continue to build no wealth, no equity, and blame it on others though. Stay poor!
people are just moronic and bad with money i saved up enough to buy my condo with cash in 6 years by living with my mother and i was only making between $12 and 15 an hour
It was not considered normal at all in 1989. Simpsons, Flinstones, all go back to The Honeymooners. Where in the 1950s a family could run off a single income. Single family home in Portland OR in 1989 was 89k. I say Portland since Springfield is in Oregon
The real Springfield is Eugene/ Springfield, Oregon. I can tell you that houses like that are confined to the nicer/ richer neighborhoods, in the sort of neighborhood the Simpsons lived the house would be similar but single level. And it would have cost them then somewhere around 40k.
You are correct. Springfield is a hybrid between Groening hometown Portland OR where lot characters names are named after and where Trojan power plant was and Springfield OR. Real Evergreen Terrace is in Portland
People that constantly bring this up never watched the show. There is a flashback episode involving Maggie and Lisa speaking their first words. During the episode they show Homers dad selling his old house to allow Homer, Marge and Bart to get the new house the family lives in while homers dad goes off to the old folks home. His dad basically bought them the house because they had a second kid coming
In the US there has been something like a 60% increase in population since WW2. You're competing with that many more people compared to boomers. You are worth less than they were, of course they had it easier
Eh. More israelites. Women are dumb. Only now 70 years later are they realizing how played they got. Now don’t want to work no more. 40 hours is too much
It was normal
Should've been born Asian bros... parents wouldn't be so laissez faire and make me be a doctor
How many sqft you guys think? 3200?
Asian girls are completely insane because of it
>Peter Peterson
Funny how israeli isn't represented...
Well it tops out at $100k
jews are as good at hiding themselves as they are at controlling everything. two sides of the same coin
What occurred in 2000 and 2019 to cause such peaks and valleys?
Dotcom bubble and COVID
Ah you’re right, thanks.
Wtf is up with asians
Artificial selection, only the top percentage of asians are able to emigrate from the east.

Lmao did you get any participation trophy for losing in vietnam? Lmao salty boomer lmao
Ayy stay triggered zoomber ayy
They have to go back. Repatriation soon
let's see Sneeds house
it wasnt normal, that was the entire point of the frank grimes episode
You need at least an associates degree to be a nuclear technician and safety inspector would be a senior position. Burns might be cheap but he wouldn't be able to get around inspectors and safety drills would be apart of those inspections. Homer was making more than $100k a year easily.
There was an ep that showed his paycheck and it was like $400 a week.
Which is 98K in 2024, zoomzoom
But you said Homer WAS making $100k/yearly. WAS meaning back in the 90s. He was making under $30k/year you fricking homosexual
it would be 40k a year. Still half of what he should have been making.
This dream is dead because we allow women to work and browns to fill oue country in droves
We more than doubled the workforce. What else was going to happen?
The house was gifted to Homer and they constantly make jokes about his salary.
How many times are you going to make this thread?
>The house was gifted to Homer
Irrelevant. A nice house in a nice area would have an insane amount of property taxes.
Not that it matters because the Simpsons changes its lore every season but the original story is that Homer convinced Abe to sell their family home and land (the one Homer grew up in) to give Homer the money to afford the house on the condition that Abe be allowed to live with the family (they put him in a home 2 weeks later).

That’s not the Bay Area you moron
Vallejo literally touches the bay frickface

He was a pharmacist.

I feel like that's an unreasonably small deduction for Bear Patrol Taxes, my salary's smaller and my BPT contribution's 3x that.
>"Let the bears pay the bear tax, I pay the Homer tax"

This. And how long has he been there when the show starts? He could be making even more

The pic is wrong. Homer doesn't own that house.
The bank does.
Its like zoomers don't know what a mortgage is.

My house is bigger and my dad only finished middle school and worked as a salesman on comission. And obviously my mom didn't work.

Asians don't have an underclass here. They all stayed in Asia. Whites have a large underclass but the better off ones are richer than Asians.
