I'm wondering how people in Colorado even survive at this point after looking at houses and places for rent near Denver where I'm currently just staying in a hotel.
I currently have a $40k/yr job (before taxes of course) and work full time and I'm looking to rent just a basic family home 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. However, it seems that rent alone is more than I even make a month! Yet I see people working at Starbucks and King Soopers and the gas stations all around here. How do they survive?
I know they are not being paid enough to afford $2k rent plus bills and everything else, or are they? The people around here working at these stores have to be living somewhere affordable is my logic. I may be way off but I'd really like to be able to live in Colorado on the $40k/yr job I currently have.

For me it's a toss up between Beer fest and Ladybugs.
Broncos have a chance to break that statistic with a game against the Detroit Lions tomorrow (12/11).
I've seen quite a few Wyatts towing posts here lately so wanted to share my experience with them. This was over 2 years ago last week so just past statues of limitations.
I use to work downtown and would often park in lots down there. I found 1 lot that was pretty cheap so parked there quite a few times. I paid every day for the full day. I started parking in the same spot daily. One day I came back from my office to realize my car was gone. I called the posted tow company(Wyatts), of course they have thier sign posted right there for you. They said they towed it because they thought it was abandoned since it was in the same spot all week (even though I paid for it daily and took it home each night).
I was pissed go to their yard and go to there window. They wanted me to pay 200+. I show them my proof of payment, doesn't matter. I then call the cops I explained the situation they could give a shit.. tell me "this is a civil matter". As I'm sitting there think what to do I see other cars being towed in and dropped off then more people come to window and start yelling about similar issues. I was able to see my car threw the fence and noticed it was only 4-5 spaces from the gate.
While the cashiers were distracted with yelling customers I unlock my car with the key in my pocket and grab a smoke next to the gate. As soon as a tow truck came out the gate I ran to my car. I start it up and floor it! I remember my wheels spinning in the dirt as I raced to get out before the gate closed on me! As I get out past the gate the line of angry customers were cheering me on.. shouting "gogogo" "yeah!!" And I was out. Drove home and put it in my garage. I moved and only park in garages now..
The next day I received a call from a manager at Wyatts towing. He wanted me to pay for the tow. I told him no and explained why. He threatened to press theft of services charges against me. I hung up and called my legal office. I had this legal "insurance" through my work basically you pay $50 per month out of your paycheck and get access to a legal team that will help over the phone with minor legal issues free(larger issues they give you discount on lawyer fees). I tell them what happened, they basically said screw em. Lol.. if they file suit we will reply with a counter suit for the wrongful towing and they will have to paid the court filing costs. Also, they are obligated to keep your care safe which clearly they didn't.. If the do try to charge you with a theft of service

Just a small appreciation post. Our GME has gotten a ton of shit over the years from our residents and Reddit alike, but itβs really nice to see them step up and give the residents and fellows across 3 hospitals a COVID bonus of $4500.
Hopefully this pushes other programs and hospitals systems to do the same.
Yβall deserve it. Keep up the hard work.
