  • As a software engineer’s wife, I can confirm that he probably makes over 100k a year … HOWEVER, people are judging him for not having a huge house or paying for his mom to have her own … however, hear me out - there’s something up with his mom. She is a hoarder and I bet she’s been overspending and had this hoarder life style for a long time. It is also not his responsibility to support his mother. It sounded like this was a temporary living arrangement and she has 1) overstayed 2) he doesn’t wNt to kick her out. I’m sure the mom is making faces when the girl shows up because she doesn’t want to share her meal ticket. Now, about living in a larger space, why should he be house poor because he makes a decent living? This one bedroom suits him and his Guinea pigs. If he gets a larger place then it’s just going to cement in the idea that the mom can continue to mooch of her son. There’s also nothing wrong with being a penny pincher, some people don’t mind making sacrifices now so that life can be easier later.
