I hope whatever dive you live has somewhere with night classes so you might brush up on that. You and the other people think the options are expensive city or shithole. That's why I think you guys haven't been many places. There are tons of nice places you can live in for a fair price. I lived in Houston for less than $1k a month in a nice area. I've done the same in a nice suburb of Atlanta. Meanwhile, I've been to LA,and Boston, you get cramped ass living quarters for insane prices. Places are dirty. Pollution is everywhere. Okay now you're putting words in my mouth. Your original point was about moving somewhere cheaper to suit income. No one is moving la to Houston and leaving everything behind just to save on rent it's a completely disingenuous argument to make. What a lot of people do however do is to move outside of their city to an undesirable location so that they can sit in hours of traffic every day to and from some plastic commuter town so they can save until they hate their lives more than they can stand. Millions of people do that and regret it. It is regressive to compromise on your living situation in order to sustain something you hate anyway. You would be much better off finding an arrangement that allows You to live somewhere you like affordably whether it be through homesharing or getting some kind of second income (I've done both). <cite>knutjob posted [p:926260158] in "You ...
