In this passage published in April 2022, Marco separates difficulty buying a home from an alleged lack of motivation among young people. He points to prices relative to incomes and investors buying properties to rent out. He argues that many would willingly buy but lack the necessary resources. The same discussion appears in the later July publication; the figures have no identified source within the excerpt and are not current statistics.

Key points

• Not buying a home can reflect financial means rather than laziness.
• The commentary discusses prices, incomes and investors while retaining the limits of its historical figures.
