I was slightly exaggerating sure, but 25 an hour outside of a city is a lot of money.
$25/hr is barely a living wage.
Are you factoring in vehicle payments, maintenance, insurance and fuel?
A lot of people have a cheap transit option in the city.
Yes. When I lived out there I would've killed for 25 an hour. I was making 7.50 an hour and with a roommate I lived pretty okay. At 25 I could've lived alone and still saved
When was that?
When MTV still played music videos.
I'm much younger than you think I am
Three or four years at this point, so technically not including some of the ridiculous inflation, but the cost of living in that area has barely increased. Rent is $900 on average there right now, so if you're pulling in 25 an hour you're making plenty to live alone relatively comfortably
Until you need a doctor and suddenly discover a lot of rural areas don't have any.
