      $850 in nice place at UCLA.

      Cheapest I ever had, thought I was getting away with murder.

      Grew weed in the walk in closet, paid for the rent, sort of.

            I wonder what that place looks like?

            I rent out a very nice bsmt suite, 2BDRM for $1700.

                  $300 for a dump above a shit bar. Great spot. I’d wait until 1am and go down to the bar and pull stragglers up to the Jack Shack. Weekly.

                        $900 for a 2 bedroom apartment in Santa Monica, Ca almost 30 years ago coming out of college, I did stay in that apartment for 5 or 7 years as I can't remember, I even had roommates in that second bedroom for a few years to help pay rent as I was saving up.. I got stories with that adventure.. Geeezzz. No regrets though. Great life experiences..

                        Now mortgages I paid more after that..

                          JJ a few years back started a thread to share a house in Vegas, rent per person I believe was even cheaper then that $425.. Like $350 a pop if I remember correctly.. A house with 4 roommates off the strip.. Disaster waiting to happen.. I knew that then.. House full of gambling degens what could possibly go wrong?

                          JJ does get creative though, I don't think that Vegas dream ever panned out though, not sure????


                          JJ care to comment on that VEGAS rental adventure? You the man though JJ!! Mad RSPK!!

                                          No, you don't get it.

                                          He was literally in the sticks.

                                          He rented a 10 x 10 patch of land with no structure in the Minnesota wilderness.

                                                Actually, I forgot.

                                                I currently live rent free in poster romecloneouts's head.

                                                So, there's that.

                                                    As far as I know the only street in IV that is on the beach is Del Playa sir. It's all pretty hazy though.

It was a large 1 bedroom with a living room, 2 slept in the living room and my best bud shared the bedroom. It was wild. Did that for couple years. $200 bucks a head is what we paid each. Had a common area pool though.. ..

I didn't have a phone because phone company wanted a deposit of $200. No cable either, same thing needed a huge deposit, so just rabbit ears, but I mainly just played Nintendo or Sega.

                                                                      I did rent an old beat up farm house with a buddy for a short while. My split was $200.

                                                                      Did same with another old buddy, rented a crappy trailer. My half of bills was about $250

                                                                      Shared an apartment with 2 old buddies. Was only a 2br, i slept on couch for about $175-200 a month. I was 3rd shift and they had 1st shift jobs, so wasn't too bad trying to sleep.

                                                                      Cheapest probably at parents in sisters old bedroom. $50 a week, come and go as i please, and buy my own groceries.
