    I literally pay $100 more to live in a much shittier garage than this…

    Rent is getting absolutely disgusting. I was JUST getting a promotion that would allow me to afford a house and then COVID fucked literally everything… The WFH movement started in full swing and bye bye affordable housing… Now I’m permanently locked out of the housing market as a blue collar piece of shit.

      In Switzerland I could kill someone and have a better living arrangement than in this picture (look up swiss prisons)

      I pay 1k for roughly 740 square feet / 69 m2. Covid didn’t change anything. It’s wild that things can be so vastly different for two similary rich countries (I kinda assume the post is in the USA).

    Unless there’s more shown than in that photo, that’s a not a 1 BR, that’s a studio. And a crappy and overpriced one at that.
