I hate paying rent. It’s such a waste of money. And it’s a lot of money. When I pay rent. I always feel like I’m throwing money away. My rent usually takes over half of my salary. Of course, landlords² are very happy. They sit back and let the money come in. The rent they receive pays for their housing³ loan⁴ on their house. The thing that annoys me most is that the rent I pay is more than what I would pay if I had a housing loan. Sometimes I’ve paid rent for a really bad place. When something broke, the landlord¹ didn’t fix it. When I said I wouldn’t pay the rent, he told me he’d throw me out. The worst thing about rent is rent increases. These are usually very unfair. That’s just the landlord being greedy.
