“When the going gets tough, the tough get going.”
That may or may not have been what this San Jose resident thought when he decided to list his “Harry Potter” closet on Craigslist, hoping to find someone to rent it out for $250.
He is not doing this because he wants to pocket the extra cash; he is legitimately struggling under Kamala’s economy and his landlord just raised the rent.
The person renting it out, Jason, doesn't want to be identified as he's not allowed to sublet his one-bedroom, one-bathroom unit.
He said rent increased in August to nearly $1,800.
"I paid the first increase rent month and realized with a little bit of math that in about 11 months I would be down to my tent or my car, cause my savings would be gone," Jason said.
Not sure but I feel like $1,800 is cheap for the Bay Area.
Now he's resorting to finding a roommate for this space that is roughly only 3 by 10 feet.
Jason posted an ad on Craigslist titled "$250 Harry Potter cubby for very cheap + light chores."
"It's about what I need to afford the rent, I'm not Blackstone I don't want to charge people for profit, I just want to be able to not live in a tent," Jason said.
We are not here to blame but I hope this dude is smart enough to not vote some type of way next week, as there’s only one reason why he is in this predicament, and that something rhymes with systematic qualities, aka Democratic policies.
How much space does a nerdy gamer even need? A
There are not a lot of places one can rent for $250 a month and I don't even think campsites go for that little. I also do not want Jason to live in a tent and I hope he finds his "nice nerdy gamer" to share his space with. He is not asking for much and I am sure there is someone who also needs the extra help.
