How did Kevin's family afford to live here?

Robert Clark
His dad had mob ties. Who do you think hired Harry and Marv?
Bentley White
It was the 80s and his family was white collar.
My parents were low-level systems engineers and we lived in a house like that.
Oliver Long
Boomers could afford houses like this with the husband making 40k a year and the wife staying at home
Angel Hernandez

Fucking learn something

Don't, OP. Stay ignorant for your own sake. If you research recent history and see how much better the boomers had it and how little ability you have to change our current economic climate you'll probably *honk* up a school.
Liam Sullivan
His mom was a high-class hooker.

Nathan Baker
That type of house is $10 million here in Toronto
Juan Harris
winnetka, the town the house is in, has the house with the highest property tax in all of illinois. its not the home alone house but they're literally less than a mile apart. costs you five million a year to live there.
Owen Wright
That's not some absurdly huge house or anything. Nice, sure, but you could put a down payment on that after a couple years of six figures.
Carson Martin
I don't get how housing is so expensive in America and Canada, you guys have load of fucking room and I thought everyone likes to live in suburbs on the outsides of cities.
Alexander Edwards
what state were they in again? That could also play a big part.
Jacob Hughes
Illinois.
Owen Scott
The Chinese own like half the real estate here in Canada
Luke Ross
Dad was an architect, mom was a fashion designer
You'd know this if you read the novel
Gotta keep tabs on that Home Alone lore
Jackson Jenkins
Boomers could afford houses just working at kfc
Lucas Perry
it's expensive around the successful cities.
you can buy a house in detroit or baltimore for pocket change.
Oliver Sullivan
They hated niggers.
The 80's were incredibly racist.
James Martinez
Fun fact: when you find that house on Street View it's blurred out.
Eli Allen
If you wanna live in Idaho then yeah, it's cheap and there's plenty of room. If you wanna live near a real city, it's gonna cost you
Adam Bailey
>racist much
Brandon Brooks
>costs you five million a year to live there.
fuckkkkkkk only politics can afford that shit
Alexander Reyes
It wasn’t easy son, after paying my $5,000 tuition to state college your mother and I had to save up for almost a year for the down payment, this house cost nearly $30,000 in 1983! We feel a little cheated letting it go for $600,000 but you know we just want to get retirement underway. How’s that resume coming along, champ?
Mason Sullivan
Kevin's dad isn't even the richest McCallister. His brother, the one they are going to visit in France, has way more money. He's got a place in Paris and a huge brownstone in New York. (That's the house from Home Alone 2. ) Also he paid for all those people to fly to Paris in the first movie.
Jayden Walker
AAAAAAA FUCK YOU BOOMERS
Landon Reed
The fed has interest rates too low. When rates are low, people can buy houses they can't really afford. If rates were higher, housing prices would collapse.
