Owning a property is actually as simple as giving up avocado toast and fancy coffee.
想买房，其实只要戒掉牛油果吐司和高级咖啡就好了。
That's according to Australian millionaire Tim Gurner, a luxury property developer in Melbourne, who has antagonized young people everywhere by suggesting their housing woes are caused by millennials' spending habits, rather than a combination of stagnant wages and spiralling house prices in many cities.
这是澳大利亚百万富翁、墨尔本高档房地产开发商蒂姆·古纳的观点，他认为千禧一代面临的住房困境是由他们自己的消费习惯造成的，而非停滞不前的工资与许多城市不断攀升的房价造成的。这一言论引起了各地年轻人的反感。
When asked if he believes young people will never own their own homes: "Absolutely, when you're spending $40 a day on smashed avocados and coffees and not working. Of course."
当被问及他是否认为年轻人将永远都无法拥有自己的房子时，古纳说：“绝对是这样，如果你每天花40美元买牛油果泥和咖啡，还不工作。当然永远买不起。”
He then went on to suggest young people aren't working hard enough by offering his own story as a point of comparison.
接着他还抛出了自己的经历作为对比，暗示年轻人工作不够努力。

"When I had my first business when I was 19, I was in the gym at 6 am, and I finished my work at 10:30 pm, and I did it seven days a week, and I did it until I could afford my first home."
他说：“我19岁时开了第一家公司。那时，我早上六点就到了健身房，工作到晚上十点半，一周七天都是如此。我一直这么做，直到我能买得起自己的第一套房子。”
Unsurprisingly, Gurner's comments went down like a lead balloon on social media.
不出所料，社交媒体用户对古纳的言论根本不买账。
Gurner isn't the first person to suggest young people's avocado toast habit was ruining their chance of buying a home. Writing in The Australian Magazine last year, columnist Bernard Salt said young "hipsters" were spending too much money dining out.
古纳不是第一个指出年轻人吃牛油果吐司的消费习惯毁掉他们买房希望的人。《澳大利亚杂志》专栏作家伯纳德·索尔特去年曾写道，年轻的“时髦”人士在外出就餐上花了太多钱。
"I have seen young people order smashed avocado with crumbled feta on five-grain toasted bread at $22 a pop and more. I can afford to eat this for lunch because I am middle aged and have raised my family. But how can young people afford to eat like this?" he wrote.
他写道：“我见到过年轻人点一客至少22美元的牛油果泥和撒了羊乳酪屑的五谷烤面包。我午饭吃得起这个，是因为我人到中年，孩子已经养大。但年轻人哪来的钱这么吃呢？”
"Shouldn't they be economising by eating at home? How often are they eating out? Twenty-two dollars several times a week could go towards a deposit on a house."
“他们现在不应该是在家吃饭以节省开支吗？他们多久出去吃一次？每次22美元，每周出去吃几次，把这些钱省下来都可以付房子首付了。”
