    Rent is going to go up as long as it’s able.

    As soon as people have more money to spend, landlords increase rent.

    Renting is one of the biggest scams this generation has convinced itself into falling for.

        I mean, you live in a major city so yeah.

        You’re probably never going to leave major cities, nor are you ever going to own property in them.

        Yeah. You convinced yourself to rent.

          I live in rural Iowa wtf are you talking about? We rent out here too!

          I actually am paying off my trailer, though, so someday I could maybe put this on a piece of rural property somewhere and do remote work or something? But like, I never chose this shit - I just stayed where I grew up and got a factory job when my neurosis and undiagnosed dysphoria caused me to flunk out of college. I guess I could go squat in the woods though lol
