It's cheaper to live full in All Inclusive Resort than a house in Biden's Americ

https://x.com/WallStreetSilv/status/1793773182434107517

$7700/mo for a modest Middle Class home in Boulder Colorado with small meals and entertainment budget

vs

$6100/mo for two people at an All Inclusive Resort full time in Punta Cana with Gym, Entertainment, Pool, All Meals.

Why aren't you AllIUnclusiveMaxxing in Biden's America?

I remember a story about a girl doing this sorta thing in bali and she was also a tiktoker and she was talking about this.. and the bali government got a wind of this and deported her. because she was taking advantage of not being taxed. as she was basically working from home but earning in them blue faces.

I went to a resort in Punta Cana for a weeding for a week. awesome time. also felt like a G because my room was at the end of a hall and at night i had guard standing their with a shotty.

You can live in most South Asian countries like a king for about $2k a month.

It's also cheaper in many cases for seniors to live on cruise ships than it is to pay for a retirement home.

home value will rise with inflation and eventually be paid off

resort fees will go up with inflation and never stop

I dunno, there is a $1800/mo difference in cost. These All Inclusive resorts were about $200 per night back in the late 90s and are still that same price today. It's not like there's some exponential inflation in resort pricing.

This actually is honestly true, especially in Colorado. Not sure what you consider a middle class home to be any more but $400-600k houses and you're living in a 2-bedroom, 1 level, 1500 sq ft piece of sh*t built in 1980. That's not middle class, that's poor.

There's a $2000/mo difference. And you get a pool and a bunch of other amenities. As well as the ability to move around freely.

If you are purchasing a home for 9x the average household income, you are by definition not middle class.

Ignoring the hottest parts of major cities a "normal" 3-4 bed house is still $400k

So now you're comparing one of the most expensive housing markets in the US to… Punta Cana, Dominican Republic?
And you think 3,200 sq ft is a "modest middle class home"?

" According to U.S. News and World Report, Denver and Boulder are among the top 25 most expensive cities in the entire country. It should also be noted that of the top 25 priciest cities, Denver and Boulder are the only cities in a non-coastal state that made the list.

Denver was ranked 16th, while Boulder was ranked 23rd.

Came in to say that I've heard of seniors basically living on cruise ships. There was an old lady on one of the last ones I went on and she seemed to know all the staff. Come to find out her son worked on the ship (cant remember if he was a captain or not) and she basically just cruised everywhere the ship went.

We're talking about a modest house like this…… Anybody claiming this isn't an average Middle Class home has no clue what they're talking about.

Keep on deflecting… You still haven't addressed how it's in any way honest to claim "average" by cherry-picking a housing market that's literally 3x the US median.
