I got a promotion at work after working hard and finally being

why the rent hike? can you find a less expensive place to live that's still decently close to work?

Try and find a new place to live

because my apartment was pretty cheap compared to my city. There's really nowhere else to live, and I already commute for like an hour (thanks traffic)

even if I lived out in the boonies, it ain't that much cheaper. I'd lose it all on paying for gas to drive in from further away.

Dang. :C sorry bud. Maybe find a roomie in the city? Sometimes you can get a spare house room for cheaper than an apartment, it pays to check even if doesn't look promising. Otherwise I can't help ya.

yeah I guess I can get a roommate, but fuck. I'm 30, I don't want a fucking roommate again. I'd buy a house (next city over where's it's not so damn expensive) if I hadn't defaulted on my fucking student loans and my credit wasn't terrible now.

Fuck this world. When will it all burn down?

sorry bud. Oh! Can you swing a tinyhouse? Do you mind small spaces? You might be able to afford one of those little fucks, and then you'll own a place and not just have to rent.

I hear you on the roomie shit. Not fun past 20.
