Reply #12: We have a new development going in near us [View All]

We have a new development going in near us that had a sign that originally read "Affordable Housing Starting in the Mid-200's!" Nevermind that mid-200's is NOT affordable housing around here. They recently painted over the price on the sign and today replaced it with "Affordable Housing Starting in the Mid-300's!"

Meanwhile, my boyfriend of 6 years and I both still live with our parents because our combined income of $62K doesn't even buy a crack house anymore. People always ask when we're getting married. We used to reply that we just wanted to take our time and grow up a little and get our careers going. Now, we reply that we can't get married because we can't even afford to LIVE together. That shuts them up.
