      Yep! RI is one of those states that there ain’t a shot in hell ur gonna survive on min wage anyways. Cheapest apts are 1800+, if ur on minimum wage and still want to eat on a 40 hour week you have multiple room mates. I still have friends in mass that are paying 2/3rds or more of my mortgage for a ROOM. So glad I left there, not that shits all that much better in other states but at least I’m building equity now 🤷
