Being a millennial, sitting in my parents house where I live reading this shit makes me want to just give up. I don't even feel like I want something outrageous. Just a little shoe box unit to call my own and I can't afford it even with a job that pays a decent wage. Man, fuck property investors.

I remember that feeling. 10 years ago I was where you are. Save save save, and remember that sometimes renting is the better deal anyways. Be open to trying different areas too, everyone wants to live in the GTA, but doesn't realize there is a whole world out there. It's good for your career too.
