    Well, at least they’ll die soon enough.

    I feel like when they’re is a mass boomer extinction we’ll have a major surplus.

    Similar to those bullshit antiques they hoarded as their retirement plan and the fact that I’ve inherited 3 platinum dish sets that were purchased for the equivalent of $7500 in the 50’s and current day can’t give them away.

      That was the hope I had a decade ago, but as a commodity with inelastic demand, VC firms and investment funds over the last decade are now snapping up residential properties by the boatload and will inflate prices for both buyers and renters for much longer than any boomer selling might improve availability or pricing.
