I make half of 150k and live in the "sketchy" part of my city, because 1) I'm not sheltered 2) it's safe just a little old and worn down 3) not racist unlike the spoiled whites that work at Mayo 4) I grew up alternately between middle class and in public housing. So, I'm used to different people and living with not much.

MickeyFinn posted:Ohh yeah, when I lived in Italy, COL was trivial and I was paying too much as a dumb American, too. I showed up at the hospital with a minor emergency, an apparently fake healthcare card provided by the company I was working for, and no idea what was going on and they still treated me, uninsured, for 45 euro. The pills I needed afterwards were 6 euro. If you have no reason to stay where you are and can get work in Italy, it has its virtues. You might have to be white, though. yeah I worked at a research center In Italy and they gave me an insurance card. I paid nothing to be treated for an outpatient procedure and actually got a few euros back (!) when I picked up my meds. Truly awful, would not recommend. I have thought about buying a half share into a three bedroom flat my friend's family owns in the city center of Trento and trying to get citizenship based on language fluency, previous "skilled" employment in the country and having friends with family that can pull strings for permanent residency when I'm done working in the US. I am taking care of one of my parents right now and will be working for another 20 years or so in the US. worst comes to worst, a US passport holder can spend up to 180 days in the Schengen area every 365 days. So, spend half the year in the EU and get health care taken care of there instead lol.

CRUSTY MINGE posted:I spent 5 years cooking. I'll survive. oh yeah, spray nozzles are nice. I've had to ask my current landlord to replace the garbage disposal three times in two years. The last I time asked, in September, the plumber came when I was at work and removed the old disposal and...installed a pvc pipe under that drain and connected it to the pipe under the other sink drain. and removed the spray nozzle because reasons? so, no disposal or spray nozzle now. thanks I guess.

My union (local gov't) just announced our new three year contract. January cost of living increases: 2023 - 3% 2024 -2.75% 2025 -2.25% I know people who work in gov't in other parts of the US, and they got 8% COLA (not including any merit increase) this year and probably for the foreseeable future too. Someone in suburban King County told me two out of their four health care plan options cost $0/month for a single or couple. Also, our contribution to medical insurance went up 20%.

Radirot posted:oh nice the rental unit supply is growing by 15 percent! oh wait what are the new unit rates starting at? where I live, they are building "luxury" apartments like crazy. it's a company town and the company pays very well (world's best hospital). the people that work there say if it wasn't for these new apartments, they would be driving up the prices in the poorer side of town. but they also say that the increased supply in rental units will drive down the average rent. still waiting on that magic moment to happen lol.

actionjackson posted:i remember when i visited paris in 2016 i stayed in this tiny little room with a very tiny bathroom, probably 100-150 SF total, but all I needed. very close to the eiffel tower and it was $30/night I was there in October 2015 and stayed in a similar room. It was in Place d' Italie and cost $95/night. It was one of the few rooms in the city under $100/night, and I booked it months in advance. Funny how I had to book a hotel room on the outskirts of Madison, WI last June and everything in that cluster was $180+/night. Just booked really nice rooms/apartments in Krakow/Budapest/Vienna/Prague for half that price or less. lol

I live in a fourplex built 60 years ago. The guy below me only works 20 hours per week at most, the rest of the week he's in his garden apartment. I've had to knock on his door about a dozen times to politely tell him to turn his sound system down late on a weekday night (1 AM). He doesn't know what an equalizer is, doesn't ever wear headphones/earbuds, and the fact that modern movies having that annoying bass noise added to everything make my walls vibrate and I can hear the bass when I'm in bed with earbuds in. So, I play a 10 hour brown noise youtube video when that poo poo starts up to drown it out. Every other tenant is quiet, so there's no need to play Jason Statham's latest masterpiece that loud. Now I'm dealing with the lovely, old plumbing in the building, where if you're taking a warm shower and someone else turns on the water in their unit, mine instantly goes ice cold until they turn their water off. So annoying, the pipes are loud enough that you know when someone else is showering or using the water in general. My landlord texted me back that the building's pipes are old and undersized, there's nothing he can do about it. Have you tried talking to your neighbors? lol the same neighbors that have instigated the landlord to plaster the laundry room with such a tome like "How to Properly Use a Washer and Dryer" and the foyer and apartment doors with "Please don't flush garbage down the toilets" and "Guests cannot park their cars so that they block other tenants car inside the garage". But I'm saving $15,000/year living here over a "luxury" apartment that would be at least 50% smaller and have paper-thin walls and floors. I'll have the #4 with a Mr. Pibb.
