Rent or Buy?

 Khan Academy ( Bill Gates said the Salman Khan was his "Favorite teacher") YouTube video that does the math on buying a house versus renting:



What I like about this video is it lays out the analysis in a straightforward way and gets us to question conventional thought. Most people believe that buying is always better than renting and don't bother to do the math.

    It's a difficult argument considering so many factors are involved. But this video gives an interesting perspective.
