>tfw rent is 800 and I make 1300 a month >tfw only eat ramen noodles, rice eggs and potatoes >tfw walk everywhere because bike costs too much >tfw live in 1 bedroom ghetto apartment >tfw buy clothes from secondhand stores
anyone else here live the cheap lifestyle?
Joshua Nguyen
eh, you're living better than most OP. Just try and find a cheaper place.
also, you can easily get a bike and clothes/shoes free through some donation/charity programs
Zachary Green
I'm living just fine, I actually have more money saved than friends who make 4x as much as me because theyre absolutely horrible with money
Connor Green
wtf 800 for a 1 bed apartment? My house payments and utilities are cheaper than that for bedrooms and 2.5 bath.
Henry Diaz
I'm cheap as fuck
I live at home and save 75%+ of my income
Dominic Rivera
I live in canada everything is expensive here
Ayden Wood
I'm older than 20 years old, living with parents at my age would be embarrassing and pathetic
Luke Hill
>take home $2,500 a month in expensive city >live frugal >have ~$900/month to spend on /out/, /diy/, and /v/
Adam Sanchez
good goy
Jordan Roberts
> >good goy This. Leaving to go living by yourself only because it's otherwise seen as pathetic is a terrible move
Jaxson Scott
Yeah I'd rather not be that guy who lives at home when he's like 23 and has to live by his parents rules lmao
Grayson Harris
It's awkward living at home when you have a gf
Camden Edwards
Yeah having a gf is a good reason to leave home. I was talking if you only did it because it's what everyone does at certain age
Nicholas Cooper
I probably wouldn't have moved if I didn't have a gf but I also like being able to do whatever I want in my place, living at my parents sucks because they always want lights out by 11pm and be quiet and in bed by like midnight
Andrew Carter
I know what you mean. My parents are chill but it is annoying still nonetheless. I wanna leave but it's too expensive really. Can't complain anyway
Dylan Myers
If you can stay and have no gf than by all means stay bro it's cheaper
Alexander Jones
Yeah m8, that'll have to do for now
Joseph Howard
Your rent should be 30% of your income.
I make 36k and spend $300 on rent.
Julian Nelson
>Your rent should be 30% of your income.
Not everyone lives in some shithole where rent is only $300.
Julian Sanchez
>Make about $2K/month >live in car because fuck rent and mortgages >budget 300-400 a month for bills and rent expenses >put away about 1500 a month >job pays low but it's easy and laid back as fuck And I eat real food also, none of that Negro food like ramen. If you ain't in a car/van you ain't cheap.
Levi Reed
>budget 300-400 a month for bills and expenses
Bad editing
Leo Watson
>bike costs too much
Acquire one then. Also spray paint
Jaxon Martinez
>live at home Where the fuck else would you live?
Aaron Reyes
>split a 1 bedroom apt with my gf >rent is $300 (including utilities) >spend $150 a month on food (gf is frugal too) >in college, so only make $750 a month from my part-time
Feels good, I have around 5 thousand saved up after having lived like this for 3 years.
Justin Stewart
>tfw you made this schmucks life savings as a bonus commission in one month
How do you guys live? And more importantly what the fuck are you doing on a business board?
Kevin Wood
these rents lmfao what the fuck
nyc rent is insane
Caleb Cooper
Chi rent is getting bad too
Charles Sanchez
>tfw live in 1 bedroom ghetto apartment >tfw rent is 800 and I make 1300 a month
Not cheap just retarded
Justin Gutierrez
>tfw I made more in one week than this guys monthly commission
Own the company or leave this board please
Juan Sanders
>make 4k a month >rent $1300 (including cable, i,ternet, power, water) 2/2 both master style, with a pool >skip lunch everyday just eat breakfast and dinner
I only have like 2k saved cause I keep buying camera gear and guns....
But at least my life is comfy as fuck being a software engineer with no school loans (didn't go to college)
Currently learning FPGA firmware so i can get a raise.
Brandon Mitchell
I'm in school. I do not have an established career.
Christopher Martinez
Do you really expect someone in college to make nearly as much as someone who has a full-time job? Most college students are thousands of dollars in debt.
Gabriel Cook
where do u cook
Adam Hall
got a slow cooker that i plug into a inverter and a 12 volt skillet. The slow cooker takes a bit longer but I can put anything in it. The skillet is best for steaks, burgers, eggs, and those small shitty $1 pizzas. Can even make toast on the skillet if I want to.
Living the dream m8.
Parker Flores
in my car mostly btw
Isaac Miller
I'm 27 and still living with my parents ,living a baller lifestyle desu senpai ,can move out any time I want but it's a bad move financially.
Landon Reyes
lol, are you a virgin or what? Why would any girl want to date a guy who lives with his parents?
Josiah Ortiz
im 26 i feel guilty and i def give up any one night stands (although i live near nyc so I've just banged at their place a fews time) but I mean, I'm paying down my student loans quick and i get good meals eeryday and I give my parents like 600 a month but its k
i fucked whores in college i kinda mostly dont care. I go to school after work anyway i have no time
Evan Allen
this is the only reason why I'm considering moving out of my parent's place I'm only 19 though so financially it doesn't make a lot of sense to move out before I'm done with my degree
Aaron Baker
where u live
Brayden Ross
Yeah I got a girlfriend ,dont really give a shit about having a girlfriend though.
By the time I'm 30 I can pretty much buy a house outright and be mortgage free,if I'd have moved out earlier that wouldn't have been possible.
