Indeed, a solitary exclamation mark cannot convey my feelings here. For much of my life, I've watched housing grow faster than my income, and I had pretty much given up on the notion before I met my current partner... with two tech incomes, it's actually within our reach. As a kid (circa 1990), we'd play "what would you do with a million dollars" with all sorts of fantastical notions, and as the years have gone by, the answer settled on "a house" and has now reached "a small house in a crappy location." Perhaps "a down payment on a nice place." I'm both happy for the creator, and sad about the reality of realty.
