        I’m glad someone was saying it. I just wish it wasn’t a guy who also looked and acted like he was a nut. Because he was right then and he would still be right today. The rent is too damn high.

      I believe you mean “if only wages hadn’t stagnated while inflation climbed.” But then I took economics as a class in school.

      I mean, they often do. But if the rents too damn high and you don’t get paid enough, there isn’t much that knowing how to budget is going to help with.
