Buying VS Renting
NOTICE: To All Renters - Fire your landlord!
What's the difference between renting and throwing away your money? Nothing.
You need to pay to live somewhere, right. Why spend a big chunk of your pay check every month to build your landlord's equity instead of your own? Believe it. Owning can be as affordable as renting. Then isn't it only logical to invest in yourself, rather than making some landlord rich?
Let's look at a comparison of owning vs. renting, and we will let you be the judge.
