Then why would he tell me to lease?

Because he thinks you should rent.

Didn't you say you are paying your parents rent before?

Why rent? I still haven't found a reason why renting would be suitable for me....it seems like such a waste.

I think that I have already splained my view -- which you promptly rejected. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif

Tell them you'll give them a grandkid if they forgo charging rent.

But Preston's time frame and mine are different. He was like 2-3, I am like 5-7.

Oh. As long as you get in for a decent price I don't see a problem financially then. I think that one concern that people have in your case is whether you are truly ready to settle down -- playa.

I'm talking about renting with an open ended option to roll over your renting investment into a purchase agreement. That way you can buy later, or bail. What ever is needed at the time.

Kinda like how you buy couches and shit.

But the rent does not build equity. I don't really want that.
If I thought my wage or income status/location would change greatly in the next 5-7 years, I would consider it. But I will get 1-3% raises for the next 5 years....no chance at promotion or advancement.

Not with that attitude. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif

Why are you settling for your existing employment if it doesn't have a stronger future?

That is why i decided to broaden my horizons. I realized I would be stuck in a rut for life. All I need is that piece of paper that tells I'm skilled in business and I'm off.
