Pick any large city worldwide, and they are "expensive metro areas" with a high cost of living where if you want a 2 bedroom condo you're looking at 750K, and a house is 1M.
Turns out software multi-nationals paying $150k+ are in the same cities.
So, you do the math, how long does it take to save up for a down payment while paying through the roof on rent?
