$800 a month?!! In what universe? 🤣
Rural areas. I live in rural FL, and I have seen houses as low as $675/ mo. They are usually taken pretty quickly though
I thought the same thing! LOL!
College apartments
Hahaa $575 for an alright 2room apartment here😌
My budget is $850
You should have way more subscribers!
Aww thank you! I enjoy making videos that are helpful for people.

Paying 800 for rent is very cheap.
In Brussels, having the rent 40-50% of your income in quite normal
So it depends on where you live
Man, that's crazy! But also, just because something is normal doesn't mean it works! In the words of Dave Ramsey: "Normal is broke." lol
@@FamilyMakesCents I 100% agree with you #crying :(
$500 for an application fee?!?
I know, isn't that crazy?!
