A list of life illusions below, will you manage to spot them all??? (I guess they are known by most, but it's always good to remind it to ourselves, keep the brain motor running properly!)
1. High prices of real estate -> Mortgages -> 25 years of work for the *bank* just to own a house.

4. Pharmacies -> Meant to make you healthier but it is actually an industry controlled by people with motivation to make profits FIRST, selling only products that they can profit from. Shouldn't it be an industry motivated to heal people??

Yepp, and there is nothing wrong with this view, in my opinion.

It sounds like you may have the conventional view of real estate. The view that everyone needs to own a home.
And two: The banks privately consider your home as their asset, not as yours. This is from Robert Kiyosaki, the author of Rich Dad, Poor Dad. The illusion is that you think the house is an asset (and yours) when really what it does is suck a couple hundred thousand dollars out of you during this life, so it is an overall cost for you. For the bank it is nothing but profit.
This is how the banks make that money. It's not really theirs to start with, yet they are the most powerful loan vehicle in town. They didn't get that money from saving it, but from skimming off the top of the public and of course giving it ultimately to the privately owned Federal Reserve.

There are two problems with that. One: you never really own the home. If you take 30 years to pay it off and for some reason the next two years you don't pay the taxes on it, they will come and take your home you worked so hard to pay for. Now knowing this, of course you're not going to let that happen as long as you have the means. However you are now a new kind of slave. You were already a slave to your job, the government, power company, and even the family system.
