This is my brother-in-law. He complains about his partner and how she doesn't save like him (he makes more than her) and how they/he can't afford a house but he spent $20,000 on camera equipment last year (it's a hobby, not a job for him), has bought and sold 3 motorcycles since I've known him (progressively more expensive), and puts a lot of money into his other hobbies.
The housing market (at least in the US) is shit and everything's overpriced right now but at some point your own choices need to be considered.
