Im often curious why more people aren't moving too low cost of living areas. I don't know if I've just been fortunate, but I'm a college drop out who honestly hasn't tried very hard in my "career", but I moved out to Cincinnati which has a low cost of living at 23 (8 hours from my family) and I've managed to do very well for myself with a modest paying job (20ish an hour). I have 40k saved up and plan to buy a house this year. I wonder if other people who have went or started on a similar route are doing well for themselves.

And if you are in a high cost of living area, would you ever consider moving somewhere significantly cheaper?

        Jesus Christ, good. Such a simple thing for reddit to have never changed. Even if it was only like "new title can only be 5 characters off from original title" to avoid fucking around too much.
