Can't seem to stay in a hotel longer than two weeks without having to find a new one. Every two weeks, for the last 15 months.

That sounds very expensive.

They all cost pretty much the same

Are you traveling?

Nope. We just get kicked out for not paying. So we gotta find a new place to live like twice a month. This hotel was the best so far in terms of room size, it has a full kitchen and two beds, but we're gonna have to get a new one pretty quick.

but substantially more than a place of your own.

(though there are some motels I've seen as low as $40/night, but they're usually pretty gross.)

Which averages $800/mo. I guess that's the same price as a decent apartment but I wouldn't stay in a motel more than a few days.

I remember the cheapest hotel I stayed in in Reno, there were roaches all over, and then I shook the shower curtain and at least 20 flew off of it.

I think I might have lived in every hotel there.

Gross. That's pretty vile, dude.

So what got you into a situation like this? (If you don't mind talking about it.)

I guess my parents just don't make enough money. And when we moved from Reno to where we are now (south lake tahoe), it took them like 4 months to find jobs, so we lived in the cheapest motel possible, or my dad's truck, because all the money available was going to pay for a storage unit in Reno. I think paying for that is the biggest setback.

But I mean, I'm not doing anything to help so I don't have much room to complain.
