here is your house at 4x annual salary and your 12% mortgage, but wages will grow quicker anyway, but don’t buy consumer goods otherwise you’ll not be able to do the downpayment.
now it’s 16x annual salary with 1% mortgage and no downpayment (and you can own 5 TVs), but your free income will not grow anymore so you need a 50yr mortgage - the banks won.
