    Older millennial here. Been saving since I started my career in 2008. Purchased in 2020. The only reason I was able to was because my girlfriend received a 10 year retroactive compensation for being paid less than her make colleagues and her employer offered compensation. The amount was incredible. It was like winning a fairly good amount in a lottery.

    That’s the only reason we were able to buy. Luck.
