HOW DID HOMER AFFORD THIS PLACE?

HOW DID HOMER AFFORD THIS PLACE?

He got a job and bought a house before Obama became president.

He got a job with Sneed before they sold the business to chuck

Insider information allowed him to invest in Chuck's Feed and Seed right before the takeover and he made a huge profit.

1. He's a do nothing OSHA job at a nuclear power plant, a job with great benefits and pay likely

2. His father left it to him after winning it in a card game, IIRC

3. Stipulated on the fact he gets to live with them

4. Show was started back when an American middle class still existed and inflation hadn't eaten our incomes into dirt.

Why does the Master Bedroom have such a small bathroom?

Back in the 90s when the federal reserve intervened far less, houses were actually cheap

he sold some feed to sneed formally before chuck

Twist: Homer IS Sneed

>2. His father left it to him after winning it in a card game, IIRC

No that was the old house. Homer wanted Abe to sell it so that Homer can buy the new house.

He inherited a Fuck and Suck store from a guy named Chuck

This changes everything.

The fuck is with the rooms to the right of the kitchen and behind the garage?

I can't recall seeing those rooms used at all in any golden age episodes.

rumpus room newfag

Made when the middle class was a thing. To be fair, they did reference it being a shitty house a lot. Would you want to live in a neon pink house?

>clever girl

I like how you snuck that inflation dig in there, but that's patently false. The evil 1% just took our wage gains, is all.

Nice try sweetie.

Big, if true

His son owned a factory.

>Maggie's room downstairs

this doesn't seem right

Are you retarded?

nots it not, look again, its the first room on the right upstairs

...

how does a nuclear safety inspector make so little

>$362
Wagelet

This. He had abe sell his house, inviting him to live with them, and then shipped him off to retirement castle
It's like you didnt even watch the show

>$362 in 1990
Thats like $2000 today

It was the 80's user, that's just what an average family home looked like then.

Well he was right, it's not Maggie's room it's the rec room.

Dude fuck and suck lmaoooo

Instead of investing in the stock market like a normal person, the financially retarded boomers reached retirement with no savings so they turned real estate into an "investment" because it was the only thing they owned, had they invested in stocks like the 1% they would be much more wealthy and millennials would be able to afford a house

479.60
$362.19 in 1996 is worth $554.04 today. Assuming Homer works 50 weeks a year, he takes home $27,702 after taxes. That would put him in the 36th percentile today, and he would make more annually than 62.5 million Americans.

That sounds exactly right for someone like Homer.

The real question is how much is his house worth? He lives in a small town in Real America (wherever that is), so it could easily have cost less than 100k pre-1996. Would he be able to comfortably afford that on his salary, assuming something like a 1-2% yearly salary increase since that point?
