Yes, this is not a real estate question. I used to want to own everything, but now I just want to have access to everything. It's a whole different mentality and I think if you can wrap your head around it you will see things in a whole new perspective.
There is some sort of pleasure that comes with owning something. But having access to something 100% of the time is the same thing right?
Let's say buy a $10,000 watch. It's yours and you wear it everyday while you work. You feel the pride of ownership. Right?
Ok, how about if you and your friend buy that watch together for $5,000 each. Luckily he works nights and you work days, so there is absolutely no possibility of you both wanting to use it at the same time, ever. Let's say that it also magically jumps to his house whenever you get home from work and vice versa.
How do you feel about the watch? Is it yours? Do you feel like you own it or you are renting it or you are sharing it?
I'm interested in hearing other people's opinions about this topic. RealOG and I were discussing this a few weeks ago.
