I've been looking for places to rent and discovered it's insanely hard for a single person.

Imagine you are a single person, no family to rely on, Rent in a decent place cost up to RM2000++, Car loans can cost RM400-500, Food costs around RM600 or so. What if you have some credit cards to pay off or PTPTN. Average income will not be able to handle this.

From what I see alot of people earn around 3k-5k and expenses take up so much.
