This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Thats something like 50 percent of your pay in my area.
$17/hr can afford ~$880/mo. rent. Not impossible, especially with a roommate or domestic partner.
You forgot about other things like food, probably a car, phone bill.
I did not. I calculated rent as 30% of income, the level generally considered affordable. Admittedly it is pre-tax income, so arguably the number is a bit lower, but it's a start.
I did it by after tax cause thats how people actually live.
