I'm thinking no.

You hit peak earning years when homes were still quite cheap (even in CA) and then likely refinanced with the cheapest money in history. You basically bowled with a handicap for most of the game.

Once the Fed doubled the money supply in 2020 and Millennials hit home buying age, the Fed had already fire sold most of the housing stock which had been underbuilt since the crash, and oversold to corporations and private investors. Very few people like you would be able to even start over now if they had to. The economy has been deformed with permanent inflation now. Is not even permitted to crash anymore.

I mean, cool that it worked out for you, but it's like someone with a trust fund giving a pep talk on how to make it financially.
