[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 5925050, member: 24302"] But heaven forbid if one chooses alternatives like living in a RV. I don't want to spend $800+utilities a month on an apartment but I would spend $20k to put a travel trailer in a RV park and pay $375 a month which includes wifi, cable, water, and trash(and a laundry room!). I could spend a good deal more on a nicer trailer that has washer/dryer hookups. The thing is when you're getting low pay you consider options. Some people can't stand the idea and want to put it down all the time. They often have the mentality of if I'm spending all my money paying for the best house in the best neighborhood then you should be striving to do the same. It's the old Puritan work ethic. You prove your worthiness by what you achieve financially. You see, poor people have opinions about what you rich folk do also. Yeah, yeah, I know you aren't rich. But keeping up with the Jones is very alive and well in the U.S. [USER=44954]@DriveInDriveOut[/USER] [/QUOTE]
