I dunno.

I rented a house. A WHOLE HOUSE! for $400 a month. I only got 8 dollars an hour at the time. I made about 1500 a month, simi-long hours.

Granted, you won't find places like that to live in the classifieds, but if you look hard enough, you'll find affordable places to live that are way better than "over priced, in-the-hood" appartments.

I live in an appartment building now for the first time. NEVER AGAIN!

When I met my wife she lived in one of those cottages behind the main house in one of those real ritsy neighborhoods by the ocean. She only paid $300 a month!

She only made $6 an hour doing retail. She still managed to save enough for quite a nice downpayment for her first car a year later. She took a bus to work before that.

Even though I had a the house, it had no heat, wall unit air conditioner, and nasty well water, but I had a whole lot of space!

400 bucks a month!
I should start looking for something again. You have to be on it, cause good places to rent go fast!

As a landlord, I have to ask where the hell that was. Were there bars on the windows or did you have to get your water at the well?
