I still live at home, but hey I only make about $400-500/month from my job on campus. It's just something to pay the bills (internet + cell) and fooding. I'm just glad to have a job where I sit around most of the time, so it's all good for me. Tung knows what I'm talking about.

At Josh's work someone in marketing was fired but they ended up finding another job that payed more and was a lot better.
Hasn't really bothered me any, I'm to young for it to really bother me. |

then...don't complain that the economy is affecting you if the internet is so dear to your heart. The Internet's almost become as much a necessity as electricity in America. You can bet the economy's affecting me, but I'm still paying for Internet access, because in terms of, e.g., finding a job, I'd be greatly disadvantaged without it. |

And libraries do have free internet =/ But I agree with Michael, the internet would be the last thing I'd give up. I'd get rid of cable and the landline before I get rid of the internet.

livin with mommy and daddy and not having to pay rent/health insurance/life insurance/dental insurance/vision insurance/vehicular insurance/car payments/electricity/water/cable/internet etc... does not count in this discussion. The economy has not affected me at all either, as I still go out to trendy restaurants in the city daily. The only thing that will differ now, is that I will now be saving up for my own apartment with my bestie. |
