Many young people today feel disheartened by the soaring cost of home ownership, a stark contrast to the more affordable markets of past decades.
With median home prices in many countries far outpacing wage growth, the dream of owning a home feels increasingly out of reach, leaving many trapped in a cycle of renting and financial strain. For example, in the U.S., the median home price in 1980 was about 2.5 times the median household income, while today it’s closer to 5 times, squeezing young buyers out.
To address this, my Bitcoin Savings Calculator (https://whybitcoinshow.com/bitcoinsavingscalculator/) offers a hopeful strategy. By allocating a portion of income to Bitcoin, which has historically appreciated significantly, young people can potentially grow their savings faster than traditional methods. The calculator projects how regular Bitcoin investments could compound over time, providing a larger down payment or even full home purchase funds, offering a practical path to overcome the affordability barrier and regain control of their financial future.
