I bought pre-con in 2016, with no parental help. A shitty condo in a new Vaughan development. Something with TTC access is all I wanted. It got cancelled on me in 2018. When I bought it was $335k, which at the time I already thought was crazy. I couldn't justify jumping right back in after the cancellation at ~$550k. Now I don't own anything, and feel like I've wasted my life and career, knowing I made the wrong call. My mom recently asked if I'm going to give her any grandkids and I told her to just be thankful I haven't killed myself yet.

The worst part is I made all the "right" moves, make what would have been considered a great salary if I was born like 5 years earlier. But now it all feels very pointless. Just working to pay taxes.
