It is true that the importance of ownership of a house is considered one of the essential factors to lead a happy and healthy life in some parts of the world. This preference may stem from cultural norms of society as well as being affected by the rise of consumarism. Satisfying as it may sound, it might, in fact, have negative consequences in individuals lives.
Two external factors seem to have a huge influence on the choice people make when they face the dilemma of purchasing their own houses or renting ones. One reason triggering people's desire to have an purchased apartment is the way they have grown up. Traditionally, some societies are used to owning their own house from childhood. In Asian countries, for example, the family bond is very strong and younger generation inherit their homes from their parents or grandparents. Having that privilege in mind, they may refuse to sell them and instead, they prefer staying home. In this way, they are unlikely to worry about being homeless when they retire. In other parts of the world, however, consumer society avoid renting a home in the hope that they can buy one themselves if they save up enough money to afford a dream house. A perfect house is not only a representative of their social status but it is also one of the factors to fulfill their needs. As a result, the essence of possessing a private home is increasingly becoming the focus of population.
However it might seem attractive, the tendency to purchase a house comes with its own price in our personal lives. The effort to save up more may do little to buy a house if nothing is done about earning more money. Those who are not able to afford may procrastinate to marry until they own a house. This may lead to competition in the workplace in order to earn more. Emotional breakdown, anxiety, stress, and other health-related issues will follow as a result of the desire to own a private shelter.
In conclusion, it might be better to adopt the modern lifestyle and rent a house regardless of the reasons mentioned above even if they may seem more satisfying. Not all people can afford that. In my opinion, heath comes first, and we are highly adoptable species to survive even without possessing a permanent home but just by renting one.
