Actually, spending 40% of before-tax income on housing is not that bad.
However, average people in vancouver is spending up to 60% of income (before tax) on housing... so u get the idea.  OHHH !!!  I am sorry, the stat must lie, b/c everyone in Vancouver is rich and doesn't need mortgage!  They just pay with CASH!! woot!

Agree,

That's boil down to : If you have earning paychecks(ie pay full taxes).  You are stupid.

So rich people love rain?

BS? The reality is, there ARE people buying expensive properties in Vancouver, whether or not they like the rain or the city. You can't argue with reality, that's the fact!

Plus who says rich people need to actually make Vancouver their primary residence? Get a realilty check! Those who buy multi-million dollar homes most likely have more than one house! You don't even have to look far, how many hong kong families here have a property here and a property in HK? And only come to Vancovuer in teh summer when it's not raining???

Use your common sense before making such a bold statement, little kid.

    My example is only for someone who works in downtown with no kids, I dont' think making 60K in downtown vancouver is THAT extraordinary... of course not eveyone makes that much, but they also dno't all live in a 500SF downtown apartment!

    I don't think you have to sell your body living on $56/day! that's an insult to a lot of people (who live on perhaps even less than that). If you live in a 500SF apartment in downtown you probably don't have a family to support, and you spend next to $0 on transportation. $56 for just food and entertainment a day is actually plenty! even if you go out for dinner and movie every night by yourself, i think you still have money to spare.

    As i always said, those people who buy multi-million dollar properties are not earning paycheques... so you can't justify their purchases using someone with a regular job and a normal (median/ average) salary.

The Vancouver real estate market (those statistical averages) are largely skewed by those really expensive properties that normal people (like me) will never consider buying.

$56 a day is indeed quite a lot.
I live on less than $30 a day

Are you stupid or sth? Did I ever said that there is no rich people buying properties in Vancouver?  There are rich people every where buying properties as their 2nd, 3rd, 4th... home.  Do you even have stat to support your BS that enough rich people are here to be the factor?  If not, it wasn't a bold statement, it was pure BS from you.  Go get some help.
