The house next to me had a murder/suicide like 10 years ago in the Chicago suburbs sold for 250k

How is the average person supposed to afford that? That’s assuming a parasitic landlord doesn’t get there first. Let’s do the math $15/hr*40hrs=600 a weekx52=30k a year. If you saved 100% of that it would take 8.5 years to pay it off. Of course you can’t do that with other expenses and shit. And public transportation is bad/you wouldn’t want to ride it meaning a car is pretty much a necessity. So you’re telling me to participate in society i gotta make 4500 a month to reasonably afford a $1500 rent/mortgage yet everybody is debating if $15 is a fair minimum wage? Then deem people essential and pay them even less? How is this remotely worth it? Why can’t we have affordable housing? I don’t want to spend my life trying to aquire housing money when I never asked to be here in the first place. This system is whack.…

How much to build a bad ass rv?
