Would you say that a person who prefers to rent rather than own/buy a house isn't financially stable?

Someone told me that I wasn't financially stable because I opt to rent instead of purchase a home. What does that have to do with being financially stable?

No. I have a son who’s allergic to hammers so he’s smart to rent. He would spend a fortune on the upkeep and maintenance even if it meant working 3 jobs. He hates that stuff.

@Keepitsimple yea that's my fear with a house. Too much upkeep

There is a lot and he knows he doesn’t want to worry about it. As long as you’re happy who cares 😉@iamnikki
