He said in the last episode that “the ocean drew him to LA” implying he came from somewhere else? If so, he’s more irresponsible than I thought and the one that needs to be “brought down to earth”. He would be better off in the middle of nowhere and able to afford an actual apartment…
Its crazy cuz LA isnt THAT expensive to where he cant find a simple studio w/bathroom indoors. Its almost like he enjoys being poor
I popped on Zillow and found places in Inglewood for 1300 and 1400 a month that have a bathroom, walls, and windows. Just north of him, outside of the hood, the same general studio/ apartment is listed for 3k. Him choosing to live in a sketchy area in a sketchy illegal “studio” is insane. If you want to live in that area because it’s cheaper, take advantage of that.
If he is living on welfare or odd jobs, even that amount is expensive when you need food, transportation, etc.
Well he wouldn’t be able to be living on welfare and then sponsoring someone on a k1 visa. He’s likely paying 800/900 for the shithole he’s in now
It’s expensive when you don’t have any skills to have a career that can afford the cost of living. Even if he found a way to scrap together the money needed for a nicer place to rent, no landlord will rent to him because he likely can’t demonstrate consistent, regular income for the rent price. So the best he can do is a dilapidated studio with an outhouse.
