This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Well and the OP says he paid for the house in cash, vs just the down-payment, which could be as low as $37.5k for a $750k house. That's a lot of money but across 2 years that's $1600/mo, basically exactly what you'd expect to save on rent. Could also be significantly higher obviously too, if they went for 20% or something.
