A 50 year mortgage for a _residential_ property is very much like renting except you also get all the downsides of ownership including maintenance and possible losses.
If you hold the home the average amount of time you will accumulate very little equity but you may get wiped out.

As Mike Kafka awoke one morning from uneasy dreams he found himself transformed in his bed into a gigantic loser
The Giants are firing coach Brian Daboll, sources say. A promising and frustrating season leads NYG to have an opening.
After another lead evaporated yesterday, Brian Daboll is out.
OC Mike Kafka is interim coach, per me and Mike Garafolo.

This sure looks like purges as part of a larger effort to politicize the military.
Hard to overstate the seriousness. A professional, non-politicized, civilian-controlled military is one of those historically amazing things 2020s Americans take for granted.
The alternative is considerably worse.

There are too many scandals to count in the Trump administration, but one of the most significant isn’t getting the attention it deserves. I refer to efforts by Trump and Hegseth to politicize the armed forces and to turn them into instruments of their MAGA agenda. wapo.st/4nEItvh
