    It’s just where he lives. All the things he pays for is more than what I pay for a 4 bedroom 2 living room house, fuel for my vehicles and water bill, that allows me to wash clothes whenever needed. You’ll hear how expensive shit is mostly from city dwellers. They live packed in with millions, competing for the same housing and jobs, and think you’re ignorant or a dullard for not wanting the same things they do.

      I don’t think that’s fair

      If I could go live out in the woods by myself with my dog I’d love to do it. As it is I’ve moved out to a pretty rural area of my state because I hate living in the city.

      However, prices are still pretty damn high out here, I just get a bit more space. On the other hand I have to go into work once every two weeks, and starting in a few months, I’ll have to go in 3 days a week. Driving in with traffic takes anywhere between 2 and 3 hours. But finding a job in my field closer to me is next to.impossible. so a lot of people live in the city, and chose to live in small hutches with 3 or 4 roommates. A lot of them would leave if they could too.
