I'll probably never be able to afford a home in Medina, Mercer Island or Queen Anne. I used to live in downtown (Belltown), what I could afford before I purchased. My secure parking garage was broken into on 5 different occasions, each time my truck was targeted. I know, I'm stupid for not handtrucking all of tools from the pickup up into the 700 sf condo I was living for 1300/month every night. I still had to commute to whatever neighborhood to perform a days work. My unskills pretty much dictate that I work in neighborhoods that have houses on the low end starting at seven digits, everyone in my family put together couldn't afford one of those homes. So I think I get it now, I was too poor to afford a good college education that made me rich by 30, had to get by with technical education out of a community college, so that places me at the peak of idiocy, and so I don't deserve to be here in your neighborhood anyway? Should have just applied for welfare right out of the gate and saved everyone the misery, instead of trying to better my and my families situation. Next life, when I'm born into poverty again, I'll just do my best to stay there and save you poor city folk the misery of someone that knows how to use a blinker. Point taken.

Hankster,

You're actually making the most sense about the subject of commuting. Live near your work.


So what are people that drive for a living supposed to do??
