    Sure I guess, but its not like it has to be difficult to pay for all that stuff.

    Living I’m south east UK and even at minimum wage its pretty easy to cover essentials. If you think spending more on things you don’t need will make you happier, that might be where you are going wrong.

    The first time I felt like life was alright was after leaving school and moving out. Despite on paper being vastly below the poverty line. It didn’t feel like it, I could afford rent and food, didn’t really know what else to spend my money on. GTX1060 isn’t something you need to buy many of.

    Main thing to reduce living costs is just share a house with other people. Our rooms still had their own locks so its not like anyone could go through my stuff.

      That is existing NOT living. your wife going to live in that “room”? Kids? Anything resembling a vacation? Ever being able to go out?

      Damn you’re brain washed.

      And that’s in a country with free health care and decent minimum wage and social support. That shit don’t work outside UK/EU countries.
