It's not cheaper to be single, that's not what he's saying. He's saying it's cheaper to be in a bigger group (a flat share of 5 people) than it is to be in a couple (just 2 people). He's also, as a related point, saying that it's advantageous to have no ties to an area so that if a better opportunity comes for you as an individual, you can make use of it. Successful careers are remote careers. The push to get people back into the office is limiting the potential earnings of the household. Multigenerational households made up of remote workers will be able to negotiate better rents per person and earn more per person than a traditional "two parents and the kids" household.
Jesus Christ what a depressing vision. Housing is such a disaster that it's easier to live in a van. I think we're at the point where we need a completely different form of governance. Not sure what but this isn't working.

There are RV toilets that incinerate poop. We just need the battery for the RV...

I am bewilided that Elizabeth Rory finds her brilliant!😪
She has been quite insightful in the past (around the GFC era), but I think she has lost the plot.
