I'm in a job that's good enough that I may be able to buy or build a small house of my own in the near future - but first I have to wait for everyone who is currently selling their houses to panic for no reason in particular, plummeting prices, kicking people out of homes they've lived in for a decade or more, and causing all kinds of mayhem. And then when I get a place of my own I'll be subject to this absurdity directly every five to ten years like clockwork!
