Inflation here? gas/grocery prices just continue to climb

Even the good jobs aren't enough. Housing prices have skyrocketed. I wouldn't be able to buy my house at the current prices combined with the interest rate being nearly triple what it was when I bought it. What is the minimum requirement for a down payment on a mortgage now?

I work with kids who work ridiculous overtime and can't buy a house. Their rent on two bedroom apartments is higher than my mortgage.

Things are not as easy for people getting started as they were for us. I worked two jobs to get my first house. I don't think that would work now.
