Ah, the good old days when you could actually afford to live in the same neighborhood where all your friends hung out?
Those days might be gone in your current city, but they still exist somewhere else—and moving isn’t giving up, it’s playing smart.
Staying put while your rent eats 50% of your paycheck is like insisting on buying CDs at full price when everyone else discovered the used bin.
The math is brutal: an extra $1,500 a month on housing is $18,000 a year you’re lighting on fire instead of building wealth.
Sure, you’ll miss some things, but you know what’s better than trendy coffee shops?
Actually having money left over.
Bottom line: geographic arbitrage isn’t just for tech bros—it’s for anyone tired of being house poor.
