Serfing

The practice of defending a landlord and their capital despite owning no land nor capital themselves.

“Steve, doesn’t half of your paycheck go to living in that walk-in closet? And they still haven’t fixed your water heater? Hasn’t it been a week?”

“Yeah but they bought the property fair and square”

“They have as much money as you do— they simply got a loan from the bank for less than you pay, and you’re paying it off for them, and they get to
keep the apartment you are living in after. Quit serfing, dude”
