In This Episode You Will Learn About: The terrible advice our parents gave us about home ownership Why leasing our home in LA turned out to be a great financial decision... ...and why we’re going against our own advice to buy a home now   Resources: “267: Should You Buy or Rent?”   Show Notes: Back in episode 267, I answered a big question: should you buy or rent a home? I spent the whole episode making the case for renting and showing how most people are lured into home ownership under false pretenses… and then, about a year later, we decided to buy a home. So, why did I go against my own advice? Why did we make such a dumb financial decision? I promise you, we put a lot of thought into this and we think it was the right choice for us right now, but we want to be transparent about how we made what, on the outside, looks like such a risky financial decision.
