Here are some helpful tips on how to live independently only when you're 40.
In an interview with Zillow, one homeowner named Reggie shared his experience at buying his own home at a much later age than usual. According to him, his wife never thought that they will ever be able to buy their own house and live on their own. However, eight months after he said that they could do it, Reggie purchased a house for his starting family.
At present, Reggie looks at their family home and realizes how much life has improved for him. When he was still a young boy, he and his mom moved to the United States. They lived a very simple life together with their other relatives, and each and every one of them was always grateful for their blessings. The new homeowner also shared that he is the first person in their family to have ever purchased their own home, and it is something that he feels humbled for.
"It's a journey, and I love every minute of it. I'm living the dream. I don't have a white picket fence - it will be more of a corrugated fence. But I am living the American Dream," he said.
Reggie is just one of the many other American residents who purchased a home at a much later age. However, all of them had one thing in common, and it is their passion for making their dreams come true.
Meanwhile, Riskology recently said that buying a house at whatever age is something that people should reconsider. In fact, regardless of age, as long as you're ready to pay for the house, then that's the time you should get one. You can be 20 or 50, it doesn't really matter.
So if you're ready, wait no longer and buy a house now!
