With the renting of an apartment, is it very hard to buy a house in Paris? In America, most of our personal wealth is tied up in our real estate, helping each individual keep equity. Is it that way in France, and Europe as a whole?
I see from postings that most of the CDZ Europe guys rent, even though they have similar qualifications as I do.
Just curoius.
Not sure. I'm not as advanced as you are in life : you have a job, you have a wife, so it's more natural for you to own a house. But speaking of generalities, I think many people rent here, yes. I don't plan to buy me an apartment or a house anytime soon, and the primary reason is that... I don't know where I wanna live ! The other reason is that I don't have a job (yet). Not everyone thinks as I do though.
