The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I only have a bachelor's degree, I'm in Europe so no dept, I made enough right after college to live on my own. I definitely don't need to get a second job or move in with my parents. What am I doing wrong?
Same here. Went to trade school, working at construction since I was 21, bought my first car around the same time, bought house at 25. Now at 30+ I got like 80k€ left on my mortage and no other loans. Around +50k€ in savings mostly invested into index funds. I could be doing better but I can't complain. Recently started my own bussines so we'll see how that goes.
My only friend I keep hearing the type of complaints from that I read about on lemmy every day went to photography school but is an aspiring painter/artist now instead. For some reason money's tight and it's because of capitalism apparently. Go figure..
Here's your big trick. I used it too, the whole "buy a house when the market was affordable" method is nice, but to replicate when you were spent the last housing crash learning to write instead of earning money..
I got mine at a little bit of a deal at the time at $75k in..... 2016?, if only I had bought it in 1990 when I was 3 but it would have sold for $15k or some shit.
