Rent/mortgage would be dirt cheap if you didn't have to live near a job.

It's never been easier to live far from your job, yet rent/mortgage prices are higher than ever.
Sure but price to income has never been lower if you're willing to move and work remotely (or retire on investment income) somewhere cheaper.

If you want to live in the best real estate in the world and expect to continue doing so when you have no job, that's not going to happen. If you're willing to adapt and spread out you can live better and freer than ever in a hypothetical world where AI has taken most jobs.

Boy I wish I lived in your reality.
