I’m fully with you. I just want to have a roof over my head, have some time for hobbies, and be able to afford cheese at the supermarket. Alas, apparently we’re asking for too much! How very selfish of us.

I would also like to add that I earn above a minimum wage. It’s by no means a stellar income, but it’s decent. And I live with my mom, so we split the rent. And somehow I’m here stressing over whether I’ll be able to afford my place of residence a few years from now because my building got purchased by a big real estate company. This is not okay. I really want there to be some change, but I don’t know what can be done.

Would you be willing to do it in a town of 3,000 people?

  If you have to move to bumfuck nowhere to afford food and housing, the system isn’t working

    Omg wow ty for explaining basic economics to me!! Where ever would a poor little girlie like me be without your words of wisdom! You’re so right tho, I’m soooo entitled!!! Can you IMAGINE wanting a place to sleep and eat?! The fucking audacity of it.
    
    Great advice btw all the povos struggling to make ends meet should use the savings they don’t have to quit their jobs in the city and move to a “town of 3000” where they can be jobless, without a support network (because poor people famously don’t have dependants and can just fuck off anytime) AND be poor!! Fantastic advice king.
    
    Also empathy is woke and real men would rather kill themselves than ask for help 🥰 that sound about right to u?
