The average house in Calgary sold for $382,000 in January 2010. A good percentage of home buyers are taking 20 years or more to pay for that one purchase. For you to say $300K - $600K isn't much money is a bit tough to hear for people that are going to spend the majority of their working lives paying off their modest home. |
Well don't forget there is interest and whatnot in a mortgage. $300k-600k actually isn't that big of a deal.
This punjabi guy seems like he's very fortunate to get that loan. I don't know about UNI, but I have a lot of friends who went to an Ivy league and Stanford and yeah... they live a different life. (Its funny to see UC Berkeley students though - they are some of the cheapest guys I've ever met. I live in 3 Berkeley grads, and 2 of them are cheaper than the story of the guy I just described and they are mid-20's and 6 figure salary.)
