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.

It's the people that could move out after they've saved the money, or the ones that squander the money, I think is more of the problem.
Youre forgetting that most people even living at their parents saving 100% of their income couldnt realistically buy a house cash in 3 years, if at all.
It's also unrealistic that we should have to bunk with our parents and spend 0$ on anything ever to afford the cheapest house. That's definitely not how our parents lived. I have a buddy living rent free at my house atm, and I dont get angry when he spends 100$ at the bar instead of on his next apartment, people need to live a bit too and 100$ is inconsequential, at least it should be.
By squandering I didn't mean never spend a dime on yourself. But be realistic about your entertainment needs. Do you need a $5000 pc? Or would the $1500 one meet and exceed all your needs? Stuff like that. Should you go out and spend $100 a night at the bar when someone is being really generous and letting you live for free? Or maybe be mindful and have a bar budget?
