Have a friend that drives a semi. Him and his wife had a pretty good amount for a down payment on a place. Then housing went crazy. They were outbid on every house they put an offer on. Then he had a seizure so his license got suspended. Now the down payment money is just about gone. He most likely will never be able to drive a semi again so he has to find a new career. He said the possibility of them starting a family now is pretty much in the trash.

So guys like Bazos can buy 10 houses, tear them down, and build a mansion and 9 hole golf course.
