what I'm incredulous about is the constant complaints followed by an obvious solution but no action towards it.
And while they make the best choice they can, they can still have problems with it - what in the world works out otherwise? Jobs? Elections? Anything?
no one gives a shit, seriously. This is the worlds tiniest violent playing for those who refuse to adjust to not having as much resources as they'd like to have.
oh man, I'm so turrble, telling them they should probably live as if they're only half-millionaries.
offly enough, reality doesn't give a shit.
If a multi-millionaire cannot accept a solution that has them living like someone worth 500k, maybe the issue is with them as the vast majority of people survive while being worth far less.
But hey, repeat how you just can't understand what I'm saying, I'm sure enough people will believe that to make it worth saying.
People generally care where they live more than they care about the things you describe. Location is the most important factor for most people in real estate purchases - so much so, that it's a cliche.
You are free to have your own preferences, and I'm glad it has worked out well for you. But let's not be incredulous that others have different priorities - that's the human interaction baseline.
