超級明星弗裡耶整天都在幹什麼。

Hope it's been a great one and hope your weekend's about to be epic.

希望你度過一個愉快的週末，也希望你的週末將是史詩般的。

Let's start today talking about the current housing market in the United States.

今天，讓我們從美國當前的房地產市場談起。

An increasing number of Americans simply might not be able to afford a home.

越來越多的美國人可能根本買不起房。

According to a new Gallup survey, three out of every four Americans say it's a bad time to buy.

蓋洛普的一項最新調查顯示，每四個美國人中就有三個人認為現在不是購房的好時機。

We have a generation today who I think is more pessimistic than any other generation about even the chance that they'll ever be homeowners.

我認為，今天的一代人比其他任何一代人都更悲觀，他們甚至不相信自己有機會成為房主。

Now young Americans have been battling a one-two punch of high home prices and painful mortgage rates.

現在，年輕的美國人一直在與高房價和令人痛苦的抵押貸款利率的雙重打擊作鬥爭。

It's important to understand how these two things work.

瞭解這兩方面的工作原理非常重要。

In fact, it's likely the most expensive purchase you'll ever make, right?

事實上，這很可能是您最昂貴的一次購物，對嗎？

A mortgage rate is how much you'll have to pay to borrow money to make that purchase.

按揭利率就是您為購房所需的貸款利率。

Unfortunately, higher interest rates are really the wet blanket of spring right now.

不幸的是，高利率確實是目前春季的 "溼毯"。

All right, let's say you wanted to buy a $400,000 house today and you needed to borrow money from the bank.

好吧，假設你今天想買一套 40 萬美元的房子，需要向銀行貸款。

Well, with a 30-year fixed mortgage with a 7% interest rate, you'd pay back your loan over 30 years with that same 7% interest rate.

那麼，如果是利率為 7% 的 30 年期固定抵押貸款，您將在 30 年內以同樣的 7% 利率償還貸款。

And by the end of the 30 years, you would have ended up paying $750,000 for a $400,000 home.

到 30 年結束時，您將為 40 萬美元的住房支付 75 萬美元。

Homeownership, which has traditionally been a vehicle of wealth accumulation for the typical the population.

擁有住房歷來是普通民眾積累財富的工具。

So we really have a kind of a tale of two Americas that's emerged.

是以，我們確實看到了兩個美國的故事。

Now, at the same time, rising home prices have boosted homeowners' net worth.

與此同時，房價的上漲也增加了房主的淨資產。

That's great for homeowners, but it doesn't help home buyers or potential buyers who are trying to purchase their first house.

這對房主來說是件好事，但對試圖購買第一套住房的購房者或潛在購房者卻沒有任何幫助。

We continue to see multiple offers, three offers for every home that's listed as an average.

我們繼續看到多份報價，平均每套掛牌房屋有三份報價。

So those bidding wars are continuing with that lack of inventory.

是以，在缺乏存貨的情況下，競標戰仍在繼續。

Mortgage rates should drop once the Federal Reserve lowers interest rates, but inflation has been really stubborn and it's taken longer than expected.

一旦美聯儲降低利率，抵押貸款利率就會下降，但通脹一直非常頑固，而且時間比預期的要長。

That's led many young Americans to continue renting or to live at home with family. 10-second trivia.

這導致許多美國年輕人繼續租房或與家人住在一起。10 秒鐘小知識。

In 1984, Ronald Reagan, then 73 years old, used humor to deftly deflect concerns about his age in a debate with Walter Mondale.

1984 年，時年 73 歲的羅納德-里根在與沃爾特-蒙代爾的辯論中用幽默巧妙地化解了人們對他年齡的擔憂。

If there are colorful moments like those in the debates coming up, analyst Laura Baron Lopez says she doesn't believe they'll be as impactful as those past moments were because she says so many Americans have already decided who they're going to vote for.

分析師勞拉-巴倫-洛佩茲（Laura Baron Lopez）說，如果在接下來的辯論中出現類似的出彩時刻，她不認為這些時刻會像過去的那些時刻一樣具有影響力，因為她說，很多美國人已經決定了他們將投票給誰。
