Three or four years at this point, so technically not including some of the ridiculous inflation, but the cost of living in that area has barely increased. Rent is $900 on average there right now, so if you’re pulling in 25 an hour you’re making plenty to live alone relatively comfortably
Yes. When I lived out there I would’ve killed for 25 an hour. I was making 7.50 an hour and with a roommate I lived pretty okay. At 25 I could’ve lived alone and still saved

I’m almost certain it is
So being recommended videos is bad now? Dam
That’s kinda the point
Oh man, the absolute horror of being told about new features! The absolute abject tragedy!
It was probably shown to you in a banner that looked like an ad that you closed out /s
I mean, I like being told about new features rather than needing to discover them myself twenty months after they came into existence
Not exactly, since the IRS provides tons of credits and deductions for things that aren’t inherently trackable, like credits for upgrading your home to be more “green,” asset depreciation, or any other of the thousand random things they incentivize
That’s just called malware
