F@#$ My Life

Money, work, and a house that may or may not have your name on the deed — figured out on your own schedule, not the one everyone else is following.

Frequently asked questions

  • Is co-buying a house with a friend actually a good idea, or just a workaround?

    It depends on the paperwork, not the friendship — a clear buyout and exit agreement matters more than how close you are. Plenty of co-buyers report it working better than waiting on a traditional timeline ever did.

  • Do I need a “real” plan to make renting long-term feel legitimate?

    No — stability isn’t tied to a mortgage. Long-term renting with intention is still a plan, just one nobody handed you a template for.
