When I was a student I kept my books beside my bed on the floor. Got hammered one night, went to bed, felt sick and ended up being sick on all of my books on the floor. Probably about £500 worth of books which is a lot when you’re a broke ass student.
bring someone with more experience than you to have a look at it, maybe even a professional
scout out the area (on foot) during the day, evening and night
visit local businesses like cafés, restaurants, bakeries etc.
look at statistics like crime and air quality
have a talk with the neighbors, get a sense of the community if you can, otherwise just observe while taking walks
if applicable, call the home owner’s representative (or whatever the equivalent is where you live), ask them about the home, neighborhood, community, expenses, plans for the future etc.
have a set budget of how much you want to spend on it before you move in, don’t overstep that amount
Don’t screw around with stock options on Robinhood. Also ideally don’t triple your first purchase overnight because then you’ve fooled yourself into thinking it wasn’t a fluke even when you know it was a fluke.
I use a wooden chair from a dining room set probably, never got the hype over chairs. I’m not hard-core gaming but I’ve sat in it for maybe 8 hrs a day before doing school stuff and it never gets uncomfortable
Not to buy a game’s merchandise from the other side of the world (shipping price was around the same price if not more expensive than the product itself)
