Who can realistically life off eating out or delivery in 2025?
The math don't math for 80% of population unless you can get every meal under 10... Which is nearly impossible
The math works out and they can do it, they just end up having no savings.
I guess I can see your point...
I work to eat, literally 🤡
Sorry you're in that position.
Is there a welfare program that you can get on to help?
My boyfriend’s parents bought him the apartment we’re currently living in together as an 18th birthday present; money isn’t exactly an issue for his family. My family, on the other hand, could never afford to live like this.
you do you, but make sure you're saving for the future now. you seem to be in a good position, don't waste it all on delivery lol
Even a little bit now makes a huge difference 10 years down the road
Especially since boyfriends at age 16 don’t necessarily last forever.
This is the second or third comment I've seen saying that the boyfriend is 16 when everyone's ages are listed in the OP, odd
Edit: they've been living there for two years, I'm a dumb ass
Edit 2: he's 18 now, they've been living there for 2 years, but the apartment was bought for his 18th birthday. Odd again.
I would argue 18 year old boyfriends might be even more fickle than 16 year old ones. On average anyway
So are girlfriends but less so if the boyfriend owns a house 🤭
