Description

We’ve all heard the adage, “renting is throwing your money away,” but when you factor in the rising cost of homeownership, is that actually the case? In this episode, Rob chats with Ben Felix, the chief investment officer at PWL Capital, about his financial model that shows renters can accumulate just as much wealth as homeowners. Plus, two millennials who can afford to buy homes but choose to remain renters share why and how they spend and invest their money to account for the absence of home equity.
