Like ever? I feel like it’s almost guaranteed the more money the worse you become. I know this isn’t very dialectic but it’s true.

I mean the aus poverty line sits at like $25kpa. That's more than what I earned as a teen/young adult, and it's not nearly enough to live on independently.

I'd love to have the security of owning my own home one day, and splitting expenses with a loved one, but boy howdy is that getting more and more unattainable or what.

yeah honestly I'd also still like something more stable than renting, so I guess owning a condo or something is probably still a goal, and ofc so is finding a life partner or something, but I'm in no hurry for either rn, I can barely keep the rest of my life from falling apart, I don't need more responsibility

yea

and yet I still don't think I'd move anywhere else unless things seriously deteriorate. america really sucks but I do like my city and its climate (snow). idk whats wrong with me, but I'm just a polar bear, can't take the heat. I guess there's canada

yeah I'm in SE aus, no snow but away from the worst of the heat. Idk how people willingly live in the tropics tbh
