    what the fuck! paying over 30% of your income as rent, also paying some random person a hefty chunk of your salary, and a host of other incidental fees is normal in the US?

    Vancouver BC has a big problem with rent and housing, but I didn’t pay a broker and only half a months rent deposit, though 1 month is typical.
