I read a study that showed 64% of Americans from Ramseyfind buying food being their number one stressor.That's wild to me.It wasn't even housing or a car payment anymore.So it's telling me people have realized they are STUCKin there current position so it makes no sense to worryabout moving, buying a house, or luxury like vacations.Food is the biggest stressor because money is taken upelsewhere.But how I take it is people have made the consciousdecision to stay put and make the most of their currentliving situation.So if you're not hounding and pushing to find qualifiedbuyers, this is why you'll have a listing sit on the market for 76 days and then go, "idk why".Well I know why, it's not 2020 ANYMORE FOR THE LAST TIME.2020 messed up a lot of people in the head in thinkingwhat a normal market is.Think of all the scenarios and situations we were in,and y'all think that's a normal market?

@Ryan Cook Appreciate you sharing this!

Buy in bulk rice, beans, 20-pound ham, 10-pound chicken packages, food banks, 50-pound bags of potatoes- white or russet costs less than red, ask your local grocer for a deal, 50 pounds of onions, 50 pounds of carrots, etc. 

And the chef in the food cart in front of the House Building was let go.

Assuming their income is low enough they don’t have to pay any state or federal taxes…Assuming they don’t have a car as the payment and insurance would pry be $800/mo.Assuming they don’t have to pay any utilities as that would probably be $300-$400Assuming all their food is provided by the school or that would be $300-400 minimumAssuming school is costing them nothing out of pocket.

I really appreciate the way you laid this out—lots of good food for thought.I’ll admit, I get a little nervous about making big investments.

Food is available.

My wife (who was the main cook) lived there with me for about six months.
