PhD stipends have never allowed for house buying in my time period at least. All the same people compete for it.

Yeah but there used to be hope for affording a house after you finished and got into a tenure track position. But now there are barely any tenure track positions and even those don’t always pay enough for a house

We all needed to take out additional loans, OR some people group-homed it… in a shack their parents pitched in for.

Haha, I will never own a house.

I’m a professor, soon to have tenure (fingers crossed), and can’t afford to keep my family home if it’s given to me outright. Meanwhile, our admin refuse to acknowledge a COLA assessment. Wheeee
