this
 mindset, some of which are going to be discussed here.
First,
people
 might consider owning a

 as saving money. They may think paying rent is nonsense when you can save the money you give away monthly and buy a

 cultural beliefs,

 as success in every aspect of life. It is considered as the biggest step in financial success.
