Sometimes you are the breadwinner for another family.

try renting commercial property. Holy fuck it's so much worse. There's no way to start a business from nothing and you basically have to do illegal shit to get started, but then why stop because apparently nobody else does. You do any renovation at all here and you have to upgrade everything to current code including HVAC and sprinklers and full accessible washroom with a bench that is about as big as a twin bed. Even applying for permits requires a tradesman registered with all the relevant authorities, and the standard is that everything is the tenant's expense even if it's a building upgrade. 3 places we got into talks of actualu renting and each was 400-700 sqft smaller than advertised but they still want rent at the higher square footage but not catching such lies is the tenant's fault. I just don't want to work for some asshole piece of shit any more but it's so fucking hard

All landlords deserve to have their neck kissed by a blade I'm so sad when i see one who hasn't.
