@matigo Indeed. He’s no fool — when I asked him if he thought he could be comfortable and fully independent with that kind of career, he acknowledged that it’d be a struggle, but that he’d “probably like to share a place with a friend for a while anyway.”
What I don’t understand is why he dropped out halfway through a degree. Simon Fraser isn’t that bad, is it?…and with Vancouver prices going the way they are (granted, he’s in Burnaby and doesn’t seem to care to leave), even people with much better jobs are struggling for homes…
