10. because we can't afford to move.

Jul 2022

believe me, I want to leave, but all housing prices in this nation are way too expensive

plus I still have a job but being an older person, getting a new one isn't as easy as you would think.

also, healthcare, my wife and I have some minor health issues but just moving without healthcare would turn those minor issues into major ones.

THAT's why we can't move.

not everyone can just "pick up and leave".
