    You need a 6 figure down payment, a household income of $13-19,000 per month, a hefty emergency fund, zero consumer debt, and a precise budget to even think about buying a "middle class" home in LA/OC right now. I'm guessing most people, regardless of their income, are broke in this state. Granted, most people are broke everywhere...but if you are not intentional, disciplined and making really good money, California is a tough place to live the American dream. If you are intentional, disciplined, and making really good money, California punishes you for it... So either way you lose.

    people used to ask me how it felt to get my ahead above the crowd
    i always responded that there's snipers waiting to see your face
    and they're the people you thought were on your side
    you can look at people w a number of properties and think they have it made
    yet die without your shit in order and your family will lose everything due to estate taxes
    all the rules are designed to fuck you out of everything you worked for
    owning and selling commercial RE is even more intense
    have done one 1031 exchange and its nearly impossible eye of the needle shit
    the rules aren't clear even to the so called experts you're paying and the clocks ticking
    they change the rules constantly to keep it this way and believe it all designed for you to fail
    yet still attainable
    and you're right you need all those things TB
    but it can be done
    first house i bought was we and included my mother in law and a down payment from my folks
    paid back mom slowly over the next 3 years and my mother in law lived w us and it was tight as fuck
    no vacations, no new cars, no eating out all that shit but we stretched and did it
    that was Nov 93 and in Jan 94 the equake hit and i thought my life was over financially since the house had sustained massive damage and i had nothing
    but the sba and working 7 days and nights a week changed everything and i never looked back
    just saying you can never truly time what time it is but you still have to jump in that ocean

    Indeed, a damn good story, Devil...it almost sounds like the lyrics to a updated Bob Dylan song in some spots.
    Good for you...

    The moment the common man turns on you it's because you are no longer the common man.
    There is no real middle class.
    It is a manufactured series of bubbles designed to fool a generation into becoming slaves for the perpetuation of slavery.
    There is rich who are served and the poor who serve them.
    The people in the middle are skilled servants or overseers of unskilled servants.
    But that middle are lawyers, doctors, and others who used to simply be trusted servants.
    Like when you go to jail.
    You may get selected and be one of the chosen protected ones in green suits who are trusted to be around and work directly upon or in the areas of the rich and sheriffed and get called by your name instead of being another orange jumpsuit with a number and a ticket to the jump off.
    That is the middle class. House servants.
    Everyone rushes to want to be part of that class.
    The leviers know this so they treat it as the gold mine that it is.
    It is far easier in modern times to levy a tax on a miner than to fill the mines with enslaved minors to get you that profit.
    Because the only time politicians get their hands dirty is when breaking ceremonial indian burial ground bringing a curse upon the town.
    So they aint going into that mine and risking their lives for the gold.
    They just have masses of people build the mine out and strip the land do all the work to get the state all the resources then tax the miners on what they skim off the system so the system always wins and the miners know that they will always be inferior minors no matter how much they mine or how old their mines run.
    Once the bubble bursts all that is left is a bowl of deserted sand or overrun jungle filled with odd buildings like pyramids built so the slaves had make-work to do in order to create heat that would spread through the network of fires and bronze mirrors upon high places that the median empire used to control the city centers all around its empire in the known world to project its fantasy of middle earth where the sun of its glory would never setjust like its power and reach.

    The middle class is a fantasy you have to write for you and your family.
    Extended family. You can't make it yourself without cheating, killing, and pillaging.
    So you enlarge the family by hook or by crook.
    You never know when the storm comes and rocks you like a hurricane.
    But know for sure that once you do you are no longer a common man.
    No longer the everyman, no longer the culture, no longer the street, no longer the blood, no longer the salt.
    All of that is of the earth.
    But you are of higher stature than the mere little dwarves and hobbit earthlings.
    To rise above your peers you must be a warrior and win your little piece of valhalla.
    But once the carnage is done what about your peers?
    Why are they looking at you like if you chose the wrong side on ragnarok?
    Are you with the gods up above or with the men of this earth?
    That is what the common man is asking himself when he thinks you his enemy.
    You can plead the 1st or you may plead the 5th.
    Either way you better show yourself to be neither but something more.
    Because if you arent poor and you arent rich and are about protecting your liberty and your family and your rights and yourself.
    Then your enemies are not only the poor and the rich, but as the pot boils your peers will join too if it means doing whats best for protecting whatever they feel they need to protect instead of worrying about you and your family and your rights.
    So maybe you arent a poor jew but that doesnt mean you want to be a good german either.
    How do you want to be remembered?
    Not like a doberman. I am sure you can think of reasons why.
    Doesnt mean you have to be a shepherd with a list of sheep like shindler.
    But a dog that works great with shepherds is the rottweiler.
    A rott is a lovable dog for all seasons that handle sheep without as much work and even work cattle aggressively and fight off anything intruding its protected territory.
    I am not sure if there is anything you want from a top notch lead dog that the rott doesnt excel at almost at birth.
    So if you gonna be middle class then be the only middle class dog that all your enemies are forced to deal with because nobody can resist a great offer and everyone loves a good tradesman.
    And the rottweiler is the jack of all trades dog.

    As long as the lyrics weren't sung by Dylan.

    Wouldn't be able to understand a word.
