I rent cause I move all over the place. I dont want to plant my roots because by year 4 Im sick of the place(city/state, not apartment or house) and want a new start somewhere else. Pointless for me to buy a house.

Renting is perfect for your situation. My concern is the huge number of people of all ages who have nothing set aside for retirement, either in a 401K/IRA or real estate. Lucky people live long enough to become old and retired, and they still need a place to live. Social security may feed them but that's about it. Unlucky people become sick or disabled and can't work, and they still need a place to live. They're all going to go on some sort of government assistance. And yet so many of these people are destitute but don't know it because they have a few shiny toys to distract them from reality.
