    Our mortgage is $2600 month. My wife has a much better paying job than me. I make $2200 a month after taxes/deductions. She is currently going through cancer treatments and although everything is looking positive it really got me thinking about what the hell does life look like for my family if something happens to my wife?

    I’ve had the same bus driving job for 23 years. I’m undereducated. A 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom apartment is $1600 month here. I don’t know how I’d ever be able to take care of myself and two kids.

    They want us to have 80k+ in school debt so you can be allowed to have mortgage debt or rent and own nothing. I don’t know where I’m going with this but I’m just bummed out about life right now.

    You don’t even need photoshop. Just use the inspect function in your browser and edit the values directly in the HTML. Free and much easier to not fuck up the formatting.

        I remember the first time I ever saw that video was when I tried playing Enter the Gungeon. I didn’t even pirate it. I just screwed up when I was installing some mods lol

    They wanted to DNA test my dog and keep his biometric data on file as part of the terms of the last lease I was looking at.

    I uhh, didn’t fucking sign. The neofeudalist movement is for real.

    They don’t check your credit? They checked my credit the last time I rented.

    Also you don’t need to photoshop when it’s easier to edit the html.

    I work in property management and see fake pay stubs/ fake bank statements 4 or 5 times a week. You might be surprised how easy they are to spot.

      The bad ones sure. You have no idea how many get by you because they’re done professionally.

        They can find out how much you make anyway. It’s called “The Work Number”, and I think it is a gross invasion of privacy. Employers use it against prospective employees to keep wages low.
