In January 2020, Djimon bought a house in LA's Westchester neighborhood for $2.1 million. In October 2023, he offered his home for rent for $11,750 per month.

His net worth is somewhere in the 2m to 4m range, with some outliers putting it at 35m.

Even if he had bought the house outright (which is not the majority), he'd still be making 12k a month...for free. Not counting his job.

I wish I was "struggling to make a living" like he is.

Are all these rich bitches a psyop to make us sound like leftists? Because, while I don't hate all rich people, I fucking hate hearing these rich whiners complain, when he makes more from his rental in three months than many people make in the whole year, for their job.

Again, that's not even his job, that's his rental "side hustle" or whatever.

Fuck off, mate.

12k/mo on 2100k is a 14.6 year RoI. Of course, he could always sell it, earning a lump sum too, but solely as an income-earning apparatus, or using rent to offset mortgage costs, that's a fairly "fair" price per month. To contrast, a 150k house would be about $860/mo at that ratio, for a full-house, not room, rental.

Don't get me wrong, the fact you can sell the home at the end of the RoI earning period makes mockery of this whole thing, dude's got no financial knowledge AT ALL if he feels poor at those wealth levels and we should all meme on him for it, but the price itself isn't outlandish.

I never said the price was outlandish or unfair, I said that he was earning 12k a month in addition to his job...and whining about "struggling" is a slap in the face.

I'm not saying you can't or shouldn't be able to rent out your two million dollar mansion for 12k a month. My issue isn't with market rate, or RoI, or anything. I don't care; obviously someone else wants that lifestyle, and can also afford it. That's totally fine.

I don't resent his wealth, I resent his attitude. As I said, most people would trade financial places with him in a heartbeat, to experience his "struggle."
