Owner. It's what the owner is taking, and usually they're working way less than everyone else.

I don't know whether to believe the meme or the comment on the meme.

Yeah that's clearly not what we're talking about here. Cortisol cream for eczema is a steroid, but nobody using it would say they're on roids.

We're obviously talking about people who juice for muscle mass.

Depending on the drink you've probably got a twofold addiction to sugar and also caffeine.

I don't get any kind of withdrawal symptoms from sugar, but if I don't have caffeine I start to get anxiety like that.

No, my salary didn't go down, relative to inflation.

You ... can't change your own tube?

So regarding your statement here:

Not to discount renters who are definitely hurting, but they do need to consider the new home owners in this too.

So if your property value decreased you'd still be better off than any renters would be.

If you want to talk about how hard it is, don't even mention renters because the comparison makes your situation look rosy.

I'd love to have a concrete asset worth hundreds of thousands to back me up, but instead I have to spend 60% of my paycheck on somebody else's mortgage payments and I don't even get to own anything for all that money I'm spending.

I just want to point out the idea that these companies not being profitable is bullshit. It just means they've moved money that would be profit into some other place and now they can call it something other than profit.

Got $100k extra profit? Pay it all out as bonuses to your executives, now that $100k is an expense instead of profit.
