    I like to hit people with some variation of:

    A couple years ago I hired a guy to patch my roof. Now I’m selling my house. How much of the proceeds should I give him?

    People start twisting themselves in knots real fast with that example. They generally understand and accept home ownership even if they can’t afford it but they simply can NOT empathize with equity holders otherwise.

    Did you not pay your roofer wtf
