rented muscles is the proper term
An apt metaphor. As you get older you will find that real life starts to intrude on your muscle fantasy life… and that includes monthly bills. After $50k -$100k for a 20% down payment you have to think about:
$2,000 (average?) mortgage payment
$400 (average?) car payment
$800 (average?) student loan
$100 cell phone (can anyone live without a cell phone these days?)
$250 internet service and other utilities
Kids (tuition$, toy$, clothe$, etc.), spou$e, car in$urance, health in$urance, life in$urance, retirement contribution$… You cannot pay these bills by being huge and flexing in a mirror. If you try, you end living in a van outside of Gold’s gym. So, yes, with few exceptions rented muscles are traded in for adult living.
