Property taxes are uber high here in Jers.

I know. I grew up there. When I was younger, it was supposedly the most densely populated state. It seems counterintuitive, but I think the problem is the high demand for property outside NYC and Philadelphia. It's like this near ever major metropolitan area I've lived. At least in NJ, the electricity and heat costs 20-25% the price I am paying (at least when I see my parents' bill in southern NJ). The cost of living is out of control everywhere I guess. Maybe everyone will eventually move to the midwest and southern states.

55 is a good deal imo

I know, but I just don't feel like I got a lot for that amount of money at a garage sale.

Good point about areas just charging more and more for their rates, etc. California... Probably one of the worst... But where I live, very similar "rules" apply... It's the way life is. Unfortunately.

Earning what I have to earn to stay alive here gets me five apartments in certain parts of the United States. 'Why not move?', you ask? It cost many thousands to move across the US. In California, the moving companies are charging higher rates than other states to move out of state as well. I'm becoming more numb to the idea of living anywhere, as long as I can feel comfortable; otherwise, I feel like I'm wasting time. I will say that living here has been beneficial in terms of my finds. That's a big plus.

55 is pretty good for that. GBAs are selling for stupid money right now. Even the first models. Yeah California doesn't seem like a place I'd want to live right now, even though I was born there. There is currently, almost like a reverse wagon train going on right now. People are moving back east at such an alarming rate right now. Like 1000s a day. It is insane.

Paying 55 sucks at a gsale when I don't take home much. The gameshark was a score since I sold mine previously. I thought the GBA one was compatible with GBW and GBC games (nope!). That PS3 was easy to hack though so I was really happy with that. There are some very accessible archives for psn downloads. You grew up in CA, eh? Whereabouts? I'm not native, but I've been around. I hate moving, though I've looked around. I think the moving companies are jacking up prices for people moving out of major metropolitan areas of CA. It wasn't my plan when I started, but if I got paid for the thousands of views KZbin is racking up on ads in my more popular videos, maybe I could squeeze out a more normal lifestyle here. "Thrift" and gsales seem like my only options sometimes. I know it seems like I spend a lot on these finds, but I really have to sell stuff quickly.
