When we were growing up, our family always told us that owning a home was much better than renting. In today’s world renting is sadly the only way to live in a home due to the increases in prices. Various parts of the United States have high rents such as Boston, Miami, San Diego, New York City, Los Angeles quite possibly the fires have made the prces increase dramatically, Riverside, CA, Tampa, Milwaukee, and San Jose, California. If the rents are high, that means the cost of purchasing a home is even higher. The diffiulties now are that there were over one hundred fifty thousand new jobs, but many layoffs from the government. This makes it even more difficult. Many individuals would love to move, but they can’t as their job is their only viable soure of income. Lately, many individuals applying for jobs are rejected. The numbers are in the teens and I have seen articles about people looking for work for three plus years. It is a difficult time. Many people have started their own businesses in order to try to survive. The idea of taking a course for a new skill is great, but the cost is often prohibited for most individuals. What is a person looking for work to do? The important part of evryone’s life, unless they are rich, is to keep on working and unfortunately keep on renting. Right now in many cities, renting takes two thirds of a person’s salary. Are you in that situation? Whether renting or owning having a good book collection is important for both children and adults.
