Geez, hang around here long enough and learn it is a bad thing to take out a mortgage!
Funny thing, because for many, many years in the U.S. one the ultimate signs of being an adult is/ was owning your own home.
As of this year, 63% of U.S. homes are mortgaged, so GirlJoey has worked hard to be in the approximate one third of our country without a mortgage, and I think that is incredible!
As far as what the house is, who cares if the owner is happy and it is paid for! I have owned in everything from a single wide to a condo to a town house and 3 various sized farms over the years. I bought the first two while I was a cashier in a grocery store. I usually worked every Sunday because it paid time and a half and it helped make that mortgage payment every month.
Nothing wrong with hard work, and the rewards it brings. Many people cannot even qualify for a mortgage, let alone pay one off.
Would we want to take bets if Princess Lollypoop could get a mortagage without Daddio on the Patio? With no work history or verifiable income? 
Edit: Added holding at the request of @jvanrens!

How is this @jvanrens???
Now, let’s remember that Princess Lollypoop gets her money from Daddio on the Patio, who gets it from the bank.
I will bet she can’t even finance a small Slurpee from the local 7-11!!!

Oh look, Lauren is failing at facts again.
Darn it, those pesky facts.
Such a nuisance when they don’t match the story she wants to babble to the world.
Lauren Kanarek must have a special calendar because on the real calendar August of 2021 until April 12 of 2022 is not two years. Heck, it is not even one full year.
She also has a special calculator where $371,000 is a small percentage of $530,000.
And look at what Lauren Kanarek wrote, the bank of Dad is paying interest now…

Very special bank.

I wonder if the bank does calculations the same way that Lauren Kanarek does.
Eight months real world = two years in Kanarek time.
This time calculation is even more off than the intubated/ICU time calculation that Lauren Kanarek tosses around.
70% ($371,000 loan, $530,000 house value) is not a significant portion?
If we use significant this way then it was even more off when used to describe the changes to the 48 hours episode.

Only in Lollypoop Land can $371,000 out of $530,000 be a very small percentage. That is 71%, which is greater than 50%. 50%, being half according to what they teach in first grade, as well as all the higher learning institutes that I am aware of!
But let’s remember she also could not comprehend the barn at Hawthorne Hill was less than 1/4 mile from the house when she insisted it was a 1/2 mile away.
Among other things, math is not Lauren KANAREK’S strong suit! Kinda like her 87D chess game!

So basically I think her word salad post was trying to brag about a high yield savings account.
Which apparently only a very special bank gives out while you nap and earn in some time warp.
Well ok then .
But I am just a horse of course.

But…what interest rate is accruing on the loan? If it’s higher than her very special bank account, well, oops.

Hay math class is hard.
With that I say I have to go take my time warp nap and earn now.

Is this still in the 48 Hours preview YT or somewhere else?

Maybe this could help Princess Lollypoop to understand if we spell it out very, very clearly.
The “< “ means the number to the left of the symbol is less than the number to the right of the symbol.
The “ > “ means the number to the right of the symbol is less than the number to the left of the symbol.
371,000/ 530,000= 71%
71% > 51%
51% > 50%
50% = 50%
50% > 49%

I must be looking at the wrong one then. I’ll have to look a bit deeper on my phone that has the VPN on it., and give my DD heck for not putting the VPN on my laptop as well.

I love the “I paid for my house in cash” part. No, your daddy paid for the house in cash. I have no respect for people who consider themselves above others, especially when the others are hard-working people being productive members of society and making their own way in the world. Her shallowness, arrogance and narcissism are on full display in these messages.

Not having a mortgage makes you very susceptible to home title theft. I had a lady who called the court when she was kicked out of her house because someone fudged a deed of sale as if she had sold the house, but she hadn’t. I referred her to Suprene Court. When you have a mortgage thieves can’t forge documents from a bank so mortgaged homes tend to be safe. I have a home title lock on mine.
