If, by inheritance or other means, you get a house, the expenses are naturally somewhat lower than living for rent. But it does not change anything in that I do not see the advantages of owning a house, it only increases your responsibility for the house and takes away your freedom of movement.
I have guaranteed income and enough to be able to get a mortgage, but I prefer not to, with the difference that my bank account is positive, with no mortgage or outstanding credit. Not like a relative of mine who bought a house in the suburbs and did well for a few years, until a railroad track was built in front of his yard. Now he still owes the €200,000 mortgage despite the fact that his house has already completely lost its value and he has to put up with the noise of the train that makes jump the cups in the display case. No thanks.
