Eight years ago I could afford a one bedroom apartment by not having a car. That is not possible anymore. My $650 bachelor pad is now $1400 and wages have only slightly gone up. There’s now a generational divide between people in their late 20s and early 20s.
Ye that’s what my friend’s and I are doing but we still don’t have a lot of spending money. My car needs fixed and I don’t want it. I don’t want a car at all. It’s way too expensive period and when shit goes wrong it’s expensive to fix. I’d like a street legal dirt bike because it’s cheaper, better on gas, and parts for it are cheaper. But a $10,000 I’m able to get approved for even a $26,000 car I was able to get approved for since it was my first car. But a $5,700 bike is considered a luxury item and I can’t get approved for it. I’m trapped in spending more money than I want to or get a second job to afford going to my first
$5700 for a bike is a bit of a luxury, that’ll buy you a 2024 Honda Rebel DCT last I looked. I bought an '04 Shadow last year for $2000, maybe aim lower?
The reason for the difference is that it’s a lot easier to destroy and steal a motorcycle, leaving nothing for the bank to repossess.
This is why we have roommates when we’re young and dumb.

Remember Americas prison population issues. That follows people their entire lives, and getting decent work becomes a major problem.
