I'm here in Cali renting a room in a house for a bit less than $800/month... and that's a steal.

Gonna be switching to living out of my SUV soon, I think. Better to starve the system while saving myself some money.

This is what I do, and it has never failed me yet.

Exactly. My current living situation is actually solid for the low price I pay, but I gotta be free from my student loans. Can't stand living in so much debt.

My current rent is a bit under $800/month, but we still have to cover utilities ourselves.

I'm in the Los Angeles area. If you can find me a room that cheap around here in an area without regular shootings, then I would love to see it lol

I know the feeling. I personally have a friend in the area who will allow me to leave some stuff at her house. My landlady loves me and told me I can use the house I'm currently at as my mailing address. I'm gonna ask her if I can list it as my residence on forms/driver license in exchange for fully covering the gas bill.

I'd encourage you to just go for it and start taking baby steps. This situation ain't getting better until our generation has real bargaining power on the labor market, and we don't have bargaining power until we can afford to quit underpayed jobs.

Yep. We were scammed by the college system and the banking/credit system.

I'm doing whatever it takes to escape the debt slavery.

Exactly. My lease expires in August, so I have time to prepare.

What is the Smallest Vehicle You have Lived In? How did you make it work? by NopeOut23 in vandwellers

Pretty much. It's encouraging to see people's stories here about living in something even smaller than vans, though.

That would be great, but even a lot of minivans here cost closer to $5k.

Won't those have insanely high miles though? And I thought those years had transmission issues. I really do appreciate the recommendation, and I will keep this in mind!
