Inheritance, family support, maybe a little windfall from insurance…
I know someone who will be coming out of 6 years prison soon and his parents will buy him a place so it’s okay even if he takes a lower wage job… Another dude who had a breakdown maybe 12 years ago and never worked for a wage since, his parents have offered to cough up for a deposit after supporting his rent and treatment for years (I’m thinking there’s a workplace payout involved as well)… There’s a regular on the reddit DT who seemingly hasn’t worked in many years, gets the DSP, but doesn’t have to worry a cent about rent - presumably gifted the house by family…
Otherwise yeah. Rent is now easily a normal person’s entire wage. Impossible on a single income
