   Yesterday I met a follower of mine who is a quant trader at the pub. He makes $240,000. Pays $4k in rent a month.
   
   I'm like, "do you even like it here"
   
   He's like "it's ok"
   
   he's in the top 1 percent and isn't happy about it.
   
   that's london.
   
   it feels like there should be more

     @graf @MeBigbrain @sj_zero @PaulSkallas I was in that headspace for a few years. It’s uncanny; the possibility of leaving the city is always there, technically; but it just isn’t taken seriously without some serious seismic shift in priorities.

     @MeBigbrain @sj_zero @PaulSkallas I can't imagine paying 4k (that's pounds so it's like 6800k CAD) toward rent and not paying a fucking mortgage what is wrong with these tests. I go downtown Toronto proper to hang out with friends once a month. there's nothing down there e. why would you live in a city center??????????

     @sj_zero @PaulSkallas people in new york are working 20 jobs to pay the same rent and cant even afford to sneeze because the medical system will put them in a pine box so they can rent the same 10k/mo shoebox out to somebody else

     He'd probably be a lot happier with his life if he just became a pipefitter at that point...

     @KingOfWhiteAmerica @graf @sj_zero @PaulSkallas I feel my skull slamming into this wall right now with my family.
