There is a very sensational TV series about a man who has a deposit of more than 100,000 to buy a wedding house, but the down payment is 300,000, in order to marry his beloved one, he tries to save money, eats only one white flour steamed bun at every meal, and rides a bicycle around the city to buy countless steamed buns. It was a sobering experience to watch.
Marriage and housing, I don’t know when they became twin words, inseparable from each other. The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to its customers.
Renting a house to get married is hopeless but realistic
Not long ago, a research institute conducted a survey on “2012 My Marriage and House”, in which 60% of the respondents said they had accepted to rent a room for marriage. Although 67% of the respondents had vowed to buy a house before getting married, less than 60% of them could actually do so. In short: 60% of the public accepts renting a house to get married.
This kind of “acceptance” does not exclude the “happy acceptance” under the blindfold of love, but most of them are reluctant “acceptance” forced by life.
These are the things that you can do to make sure that you have a good understanding of what you are doing.
Why 60% of the public accepts “renting a room to get married”
Whether in first-tier or second-tier cities, rising housing prices are making couples sad. Buying a house? It’s too hard! The down payment of hundreds of thousands of dollars at every turn makes urban white-collar workers “scared”, and without the support of their parents, the down payment is basically impossible. However, even if parents give half of their life’s work to their children to make a down payment, the mortgage will also be difficult for a group of young slaves. The average monthly salary for an average house in Guangzhou is at least 3,000, so if a young couple has an average monthly salary of 8,000, there is basically not enough money left to pay for the building, even if you save your food and drink and squeeze the money out of your teeth to pay for the house, having children becomes a luxury, not to mention supporting your elderly parents.
What to do?
When you have to buy a house without sufficient financial means, it will only bring down the standard of living of several generations.
Without a house, where can we put our marital bliss?
So, the lesser of the two, renting a house to get married, has become the “best solution” for most people.
Renting a house to get married is a bunch of sad things
Renting a house to get married for young people does reduce the economic pressure at the moment. However, this pressure will only be reduced temporarily and will not disappear. The pressure of not having a home will manifest itself in all aspects of life as you get older and children are born, and eventually more and more, until it becomes a trigger for divorce.
Renting a house to get married means you can’t take care of your own wedding house seriously because you don’t have the right to do so, and even if your landlord allows it, you won’t be ruthless enough to drop money on a place that may not be yours tomorrow. Yes, renting also means you don’t know today if you’ll be swept out tomorrow. That tomorrow may happen to be a cold winter month, just when you’re carrying an August belly. And you still have to drag your suitcase and quilt around to find a new place to live.
For a woman, the sadness of not having a house is like being on a boat at sea with no shelter, with no chance of escape from the sun and rain.
Buying a house after marriage?
The man’s promise is a waste of paper
The man always says, “Renting is only temporary, after marriage I will work hard to create good material conditions, when we have money, buy you a big house! The woman who was blinded by love believed it. When the marriage found the man as always in the work “small fights” “not painful”, it is too late! Wait until the birth of a child, milk money to be saved from the teeth, only to find that the house has been the ninth cloud of “fantasy”! The questioning and arguing at this time has been meaningless, the woman will find, when committed to the man to rent a room to get married is the biggest mistake in life. This time where there is still talk about love? The company’s main goal is to provide the best possible service to its customers.
That said, 60% of the public’s “rent-a-marriage” is really a choice. If social wealth were a little more even, and housing prices were not so appalling, this survey would be a different version altogether.
