This meme feels like projection.

The vibe when you're a 30 year old software developer and still could never afford a house in this economy....

30 year old software developer from a third world country here, 8 years of job experience on my CV. My 60k/year salary from working as a contractor for US companies puts me at around the top 99th percentile of salary earners in my country. I still cannot afford to buy a house and have instead opted to live with my parents until I've saved up enough to move out.
