In eight years, I suspect you're net worth would be more if you rent than buy.

I compared my parent"s house in southern California to gold in 1989(the year they bought) Gold would have done better, so renting + stacking the difference is a better bet if your net worth is your only value.

If you live in a van and stack sats, your net worth will be even higher.

If you live in a tent and stack sats, you'll be super rich.

If you live under a bridge and stack sats, you will become as rich as you can possibly be.

Money isn't the only value though. Maybe living under a bridge means you're worth 100 million in 8 years, but owning a house means your worth 50 million. I would choose the house, because of the marginal theory of return, but value is subjective. If I was single, I would live in a van. 

 Bahaha yeah there’s so much to take into account. I don’t think at this point in my life, I could go back to van life 😂 

 I was being a little tongue & cheeck, but money isn't the only value. Sometimes, it's easy for bitcoiners to forget this because we spend so much of our time thinking about money. ☺️
