How Much is Rent in Your Country?

In the US, you need to earn at least $21/hr JUST to pay rent. This doesn't include utilities or services.

my mortgage costs less than rent
not my problem

Our cunt is worse off

I own a tiny fucking apartment that I purchased for $200k during COVID and now I rent the 3 tiny ass bedrooms for $2000 each.

It's crazy how much money you can make renting. I'm thinking about dividing the master bedroom into a separate bedroom once the lease is up.

rent

mortgage

car loan

netflix

spotify

why are people this dumb today holy shit

How Much is Rent in Your Country?

greatly depends on where you live
in my small shithole town, a 1-roomer won't bankrupt you, but will vary based on where it is and how new the building is
now I'm renting a 1-roomer that's more than double what my previous 1-roomer was
in Cuckholm, I probably couldn't even buy food for 3 days on my income

Maybe they could afford it if they cut down on the goyslop just a tiny bit

>rent

>mortgage

especially since these are mutually exclusive
how do you even end up having both?

I literally borderline homeless (living under a bridge)
Like 300 bucks a month.

I live in picrel and pay $538 per month for a 1 bedroom, 55m2 apartment 10 minutes on foot from the city center.

I have a hypothesis but I can't prove it.

It seems to me that there's an undercurrent in cities, depending on country/laws, to block newcomers unless they're sufficiently wealthy or at the very least anchored somehow to a job that assured habitation.

A modern equivalent to feudal laws, when peasants weren't allowed to leave the land nor enter cities. Instead of laws by decree, now there are barriers by pecuniary restrictions.

Now, this could very well signal that a city is "overburdened" and reached its physical capacity and could sustain itself ergonomically without more people moving in.
Alright, but then we don't see the focus moving to other cities, raising their potential as a consequence, you still have the high concentration on these particular cities.

So now you're blocked with these "crown cities" that refuse genuine enlargement (or can't anymore) or refuse genuine peripheral development towards other cities.

Eitherway, cities were always demographic sinkholes, so don't read too much into this particular aspect.

he didn't bought his home cash down

Explain how "not buying goyslop" works when the median wage is $20/hr and so is the rent.

I own an apartment building. This is my living unit.

Rent is dirt cheap in every city I've lived in at least. Currently got 5219 kr (like 500 usd) per month in rent for a pretty big studio (61sqm)

paying either of these means that you have 0 financial sense

that's because your government actually build huge flats everywhere in the suburbs
here they didn't and rent is very expressive

Who the fuck has the money to pay you that, under such conditions?

Unless they're drug dealers/traffickers, prostitutes or something else...

inte illa
du betalar nästan 2k mindre än jag gör för min etta på 44 kvadrat i min obetydliga skitstad

5219 kr (like 500 usd) per month in rent

That's more than double the rate we charge people to live in our units.

Capitalist pig

?????

ho the fuck has the money to pay you that, under such conditions?

Don't look up Canadian rent prices, especially for the most expensive city, and the most expensive parts of that city.

bed big enough for 5 people

cuck room not big enough to have a sensible couch-tv setup

Jo Heimstaden som jag hyr hos har mycket billiga lägenheter. När jag bodde i Kalmar så gav jag nästan sju lapp för min etta på trettio kvadrat.

Again, who are these people that have that kind of money? It is insane.

normal people just own their houses, I can kinda understand mortgage if you come from a dirt poor family and just need a place to live, but even normies take mortgages now and it's too normalized

pretty nice, how much if rent in BK?

What kind of TV and couch do your 500 USD units come with?

Forgot the "small entrepreneur" type that really needs that rental for some reason.

My 90m2 unit isn't for rent, the smaller ones seen are 45m2 and go for 8k baht/month (~240 USD).

Everyone lives fucking alone so studio apartments are very common and cheap.

$2k for rent isn't "the most expensive" thing ever. That's half your average salary here, or thereabouts.

Would you consider half your salary towards rent to be too prohibitively expensive?

I'm probably the top 1% of landlords. Literally any issue you have, you can call me, and I'll come fix it. I don't fuck around and say "soon" and don't do shit. Even chips on paint I'll come over to fix it.

Kalmar

ja, de har ju fått nippran på att lajva storstad där, så jag kan tänkta mig att det är saftigare där bara pga läget
man är ju där och ränner för jämnan, men jag hade nog inte velat bo där

Cheaper than Jakarta. Here apartment start 400 USD in good places.

what do you mean?

Capitalist pig, have fun defaulting once everything crashes 2008 style
Half the salary is a shitton, and good luck scoring that with all the unemployment

That TV and couch comes with the living room of the apartment unit. You said it wasn't sensible, so I ask what kind of TV and couch your units come with.

Seems straightforward.

Bodde i två olika lägenheter där och fick flytta båda gångerna för fanskapen skulle renovera husen och höja hyrorna igen. Fick nog efter andra gången och drog till Linköping istället.

Again, I bought the apartment back during COVID. I've made back my ROI and I'm just saving up. My lifestyle is cheap.

good luck scoring that with all the unemployment

There's a shortage of homes, and no shortage of tenants. I don't think you understand what you're talking about.

tiny apartment

3 bedrooms

just live with your parents until you have enough money to make a downpayment

his apartment comes with furniture and home electronics

well, a different world, as it were
it's like a hotel room in an apartment form

Kalmarhem? Monopolhyresvärdar är det alltid skit med. När brorsan bodde i Kalmar, i Funkabo, så blev de lovade nya köksluckor och det andra innan inflytt, för de var fan risiga, men inte blev det något av det.

och det andra

det ena med andra*, skulle det stå
jag skriver snabbare än fingrarna hinner med på tangentbordet

Rent smaller units, get a second job, quit the whining. Even I, a so-called "europoor" earn more than that.

Första var Kalmarhem. Andra var Kalmargården. Båda var lika usla men Kalmarhem var exakt som du skrev. Sket i allt och fixade inte ens värmen hemma hos mig när elementen var avstängda när det var -15 ute.

difference is peasants didnt own land, but today you can only own land outside of cities.

and i dont see why you would live in a city anyway, atleast in croatia.

I own a 2 bedroom condo in a nice area all to myself. When I first started working at 23, my brother and I both bought a 1 bedroom unit for $240k that he lived in for 5 years. We sold it for $325k and I was able to put money down to buy a pre-constuction for $480k. I lived there for 5 years then sold it for $725k and bought this place for $980k.

The only downside is I did nothing but work throughout my 20s and have barely talked to women or traveled or had any fun.

So it has nothing to do with "goyslop".

It does. They all have their subscription services, they eat processed junk that's somehow more expensive than real food and then complain about muh cost of living. Rent smaller units, stop wasting your money, work more.

Känner igen det från min kommunala (alltså ett privat bolag som kommunen äger) hyresvärd här. Elementen slås inte på förrän i december, så man huttrar och svär dessförinnan.
