    As a point of perspective, the last time I made less than $26K was in 2003. Totally doable when rent is $400.

      last time (well before now) I made less than 26k I was living with family. Last time I saw rent at $400 was in a college town (where rent was cheap) in the 90’s. and not the late nineties.

        I was in Charlottesville in 2003, and it was very much a college town with that level of rent available. I had a cute little utilities-included cottage as a copyed.
