How did it get so bad? Paula says she doesn't think she's a big spender. Her last big purchase was $76,000 plot of land in the country, which she was planning to build a house on.

Now, she's faced with a strange predicament. Because of the pandemic, her plans of living in the country with a house built on the land are out of reach with her insane debt. Currently, she's renting a spot nearby her land, but still paying her mortgage. thestar.com/business/perso…

This Toronto teen saw his parents struggling financially during pandemic. Relying on dad's single income (under $40,000) Karan Agrawal put university on hold to help his family.

Now, he makes $83,000. Can he buy his parents a home? #MillennialMoney thestar.com/business/perso…
The family rents a spot in Scarborough for $1,200/month. Since leaving school, the 19-year-old is paying almost half the rent. How did he find a job without a degree? Interning at a major bank and picking up a freelance gig in finance.

Now, aggressively saving money and spending as little as possible, Agrawal is saving for his next major goal: buying a place for his parents.

“It’s always been their dream to have a place of their own in Canada,” he said.

When Luis moved to Canada, he discovered the cost of living was higher here. It’s why he’s extremely frugal and lives “humbly,” trying to save money by eating all meals at home or preparing food for work. “I only buy things on sale,” Luis said.

This millennial artist and part-time farm hand makes around $12,000 a year.

The 34-year-old is an artist and part-time farm hand living in a tiny home on an Alberta farm. He doesn't pay rent or a mortgage and does odd jobs on the farm to keep his property. He is thinking of one day buying his own land. Can he do it?

To build the tiny home, Bartz saved $25,000 toward the build and did all the work himself when he was still on a salaried job. “I also sold anything I didn’t need to raise money,” Bartz added.

His largest costs? $700 on transportation, including high insurance because of a past accident.
