The internet is a scary place. Every day, we get bombarded with stories of how the world is ending. The economy is crashing. The stock market is in freefall. The housing market is going to--you get the point. 

However, we feel so bad for consumers because we get so much bad news thrown at us from every angle. And it's not getting any better. Hence, home buyers, although they want to buy a home, don't push through because of all this fear-mongering. 

So, what's causing this fear? Are they rational or just speculation? Let's talk about the dangers of doom-scrolling and how the internet makes us afraid to buy a home in Delaware. 

Why there's so much bad news lately?

From the highly charged doomsday videos on TikTok, all the way to the highest forms of media of CNN and Fox News, the internet gives us whatever information they want us to know and whatever information they want us to believe. They take advantage of unsuspecting consumers by making us fear the worst. And it's all just a way to make us more dependent on the content they provide. 

The more we watch the news, the more ads they can shove on our faces. The more fearful we get, the more we watch, and the more ads they can sell. 

It's a vicious cycle. And what's worse is that whenever these media give this news to us, there's no actual data behind it. And it's all just speculation. Let's talk about it a little bit more.

Not backed up by data?

The one that hits closest to home for us is the housing market, and everybody said it's going to crash. Every time we see this, they don't give any basis for why this will happen. No stats, no reason whatsoever, and they want to say it for attention.
