Nothing makes me madder, folks

Lol I’ve already spent $250 in applications alone and I still don’t have a place to stay.

Mao was right.

    Yes, in the wonderful USA landlords are allowed to charge a non refundable “application fee” which can range from $20+ dollars (most of mine are $45-$50) so they can run a “background check” on you and make sure you’re not in debt, have a low credit score, are not in bankruptcy and are not a felon. You don’t get this money back ever, not if someone already applied first and got it, not if you’re not qualified due to the background check, nothing.

    They let a bunch of people apply without taking the listing down and just pocket the money
