Rent/mortgage payment NO JUDGEMENT AT JUST ASKING WHAT IS YOUR RENT OR MORTGAGE PAYMENT WHERE YOU LIVE? I WAS LOOKING UP THE OTHER HOW VASTLY DIFFERENT PRICES FOR HOMES AND APARTMENTS AND THINGS LIKE THAT ARE DEPENDING ON WHERE YOU LIVE. I LIVE IN THE DEEP SOUTH AND I FEEL PRETTY DECENT COST YET I WILL SEE A HOME POP UP ON MY FEED FOR RENT OR FOR SALE. AND BE LIKE OH MY GOSH THAT IS RIDICULOUSLY EXPENSIVE. THAT'S YOUR BIGGEST EXPENSE EVERY MONTH. YOUR BIGGEST EXPENSE payment or your RENT PAYMENT. CURIOUS WHAT YOURS IS AND DOES IT FEEL DOABLE? IS IT A STRETCH? OR HARDSHIP? OR IS IT LIKE NO, YOURS IS TOTALLY REASONABLE NO REASON TO SELL OR DOWNGRADE FIND A NEW PLACE OR WHATEVER? JUST VERY CURIOUS ABOUT THAT BECAUSE IT DOES VARY SO VASTLY. AGAIN, NO JUDGEMENT, JUST TOTALLY FOR DISCUSSION. DROP YOUR RENT AND OR MORTGAGE payment in the COMMENTS AND LET'S SEE KINDA WHERE WE
