Seriously... I have a coworker like this. He's in his 60s and talks about the numerous properties he owns and rents that he bought decades ago and asks me why I don't do it...

Motherfucker we're underpaid factory workers, how the fuck am I supposed to get $500k and who the hell is going to rent that house at the price I'd have to set for rent? Just because you got your houses for ~90k back then doesn't mean I can now...
