re: #64 Pawn of the Oppressor

What assholes. Where I live, $32K a year is really good pay for the average human, and that would be eaten up by rent, insurances, and telecom bills in an eyeblink.

The author of this infographic covered all three. For rent, you’re supposed to up and move to a city with low rental fees (i.e. urban hellhole), get the slumlord to include utilities in the rental fee, and also look into getting a roommate or three to split costs.

Health insurance? Get a plan with a high deductible. Not included in that advice? Pray to God you never get so sick that you have to actually utilize that plan.

And telecom? Get an antenna to watch local stations, get a Netflix subscription, and…well shit, I guess they expect you to use smoke signals for communication, because they didn’t include a cellphone in their calculations.

Oh, and for your commute? Try to find a place that’s within biking distance of your job so you can ditch your car…then just give up on ever traveling away from your apartment for 10 years, because their calculations didn’t include spending for vacations.
