I didn't start off househacking, and when I did, I made plenty of dumb mistakes doing it. But the end result is inarguably magic. Something that I see in few places in the literature is the shift to your mindset/perception that househacking brings. You go from the mind-controlled "I want to live in the most spacious and luxurious single-family home I can possibly afford because that's what successful people do" to the freethinking "I choose to be different to beat the system."

There is just enormous value in that mindset shift, especially when the rent starts coming in month after month to validate the truth of it in your expenses spreadsheet.
