I managed to buy a small house during the weird financial stuff going on during covid. As much as this gif is accurate, I like it better than renting.

Own. I saved for years because I didn't ever want to rent again.

Same, except I got lucky and managed to buy right before covid. Was able to take advantage of the weird financial stuff and re-finance less than a year into my mortgage, though. Worked out pretty well. Went from a 20-year fixed at 4% to a 15-year fixed at 2.8%.
