That's not that bad unless that's already adjusted for inflation. If you haven't adjusted it already then 150k would be 310k today. Where I'm at house costs have increased 5x after adjusting for inflation.

    My dad bought a house as the only worker and supported my mom and 2 kids 30 years ago. Now, I cannot buy that house even though I earn more than double than what his job currently pays while I don't have to support other people. It's crazy. The Netherlands as well btw.
