look at this chart and tell me that buying a home is a better investment than just dumping money into index funds.

there are many good reasons to buy a home, but long term investment is absolutely not one of them. if you can rent for a certain amount cheaper and dump the extra you would have spent on a house into index funds, you'll make more money than "investing" in a house.
