2 is higher than 3 or 4.

Presumably OP is about as skilled as, or a little more than, account farmers (who are bound to be pretty good to make any money...) and less skilled than professional YouTubers.

That's great but the percentage of people who currently live in single family houses is much greater in the USA than in Germany.

If only the USA was building some solid laws protecting tenants...

Popularly known for being one of the most horrible things, haha. Even the Swedes don't like it, they just keep it around as a prank to play on foreigners and need strong alcohol as a chaser to get it down...

Germany is a terrible comparison here. Home ownership in Germany is about 50%, true, much lower than the US' 65%. However, the majority of those rentals are apartments rather than houses, since even small towns are highly densified, very unlike the USA. There are many state landlords which provide rentals at a very attractive price; it's rare for people to spend more than 30% of their post-tax income on rent. Furthermore, there are extremely strong protections for renters, restrictions on rent increases, and they can renovate their apartments as they please. That's very different from what American real estate corporations want.

To be fair, they also don't complain about all sorts of stuff they probably should complain more about

Depending on when this "study" was done the Prius probably had a NiMH battery though.
