minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish23•1 month agoSome can perhaps afford to give up 20% of their salary. Good for them. Many of us don’t have that wiggle room.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink10•edit-21 month agoFor me giving up the commute would basically pay my 20% that I forgo. My gas bill is like $400 a month and 90% of that is for my work commute.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink2•1 month agoYeah that’s how I interpret it: 20% covers the cost of commuting. Factor in the time of commuting and getting ready, and 20% doesn’t sound that crazy.
