Maybe stop artificially inflating the housing market by buying up investment properties that are largely left unused? What do I know though. I just live in a metro area where 30% of housing is held in Blackstone trusts.
EDIT: corrected the trust management company
Not to be that guy, but just so you don’t get called a conspiracy theorist:

It’s a distinction with no real difference, but someone IRL called me out on this the other day because I got Blackrock mixed up with Blackstone…
Whoops, fixed it
30 years ago huh?
1995:
Median Household Income $34,076/yr
Median House Price $114,6002024 (only year with finalized data):
Median Household Income $83,730/yr (+145%)
Median House Price $419,300 (+265%)Fuck yourself with a cactus stupid CEO lady
Other costs like health care, child care, and education have also exploded. Even less of that median income is disposable income.
no no, don’t you see…we’ve changed they cpi/ppi calculations so everythings fine
I never bought Starbucks coffee to begin with, but I am part of a massive number of Americans that believe this CEO (like most) makes too much money, is too disconnected from reality, and should be humbled by reality some time in their pathetic life.
If she got luigi’d I would laugh and laugh
Much like children and mines, CEOs yearn for the guillotine
JFC, how many times is Gen X going to be overlooked? Just who was really entering the workforce and struggling to pay for student loans, apartments or houses in 1995? Most boomers probably bought their first house 15-20 years prior to that.
Hint: it was not the fucking boomers. FFS.
Gen X is apparently condemned to be the middle child between boomers and Gen Y/Z.
Also, and BTW, Gen X was also given that utterly useless advice about coffee, too. It’s been at least 30 years of idiots saying things like that. Gag me with a spoon and as if and like totally bogus…
