I don’t mean 8000 dollars a year, I mean 8000 dollars in total for 4 years.
I live off unemployment payments in a room where I don’t have to pay rent but I have to pay for the portion of water and electricity and laundry products and Internet I use. The rest of the money I use for food but the appliances and plates and bed came with the room.
I haven’t bought clothes in the last 5 years and I get donation clothes. I get phones from donation too. I eat two meals a day. I try to cook most of the time to save food since there’s a communal fridge and cooking appliances too. I get the cheapest takeaway I can about 2-3 times a week.
I know this will end sometime, probably soon, this is too good a deal honestly. I try not to think of the inevitable end.
