$800 Rent is cheap in this economy
Ikr, just saw an ad for a nearby apartment wanting 1,200$ a month for a studio apartment... in Nebraska
Again, the "how you live" thing again, in your opinion, what is the "correct" way to live?
That's a terrible way to look at the situation, did you ever wonder why it was even necessary in the first place to do that to yourself?
Yeah that inital response gave me the impression that they live in a completely different situation than what I, and most of the people I know IRL are experiencing. Typical rent prices out here are 120% the sum of 2 weeks of minimum wage pay, not including utilities
In my case I'm subleasing so I'm paying off my Landlords' Landlord's fifth mortgage
≥ Mortgage You lost me there, renting is much more expensive than paying a mortgage off
My parents were Gen X but they faithfully followed the boomer mindset
Me and my fiancee both work full time to just barely survive each month with no savings because the CoL is so fucking high it's unmaintainable. And if you reply with "just move", first: I'm in the midwest, it's not AS bad out here, and second: Moving is a privilege, it's expensive, time consuming, and often times you end up in a worse spot than you were before
I've been using some schematics I've dug up from the 90's internet, most of the hard part is learning the dark magic rituals you need to perform in order to make sense of how the things actually function, it's very complicated and I was way in over my head when I started, but after a few years of failing a whole lot I've gotten somewhere lol
This is my sink, I have the exact sink, that's creepy. Mines full of dishes though :<
