When asking about renting a house these days, there are several factors to consider: location, living environment and rent price.
In this era of high housing prices, rents naturally rise, especially in first-tier cities
Even the rent price in Hangzhou is breathtaking. In the vicinity of Ant Financial, the rent is about 3000 to rent a suitable house.
Fortunately, the place I work is not in the center of the city, so I can pay a little more to rent closer, while still balancing the living environment and the size of the house.
Actually in a lot of people in big cities, have to commute every day to face pressure, for example, if you work in the downtown of Shanghai, basically commuting time is half an hour or more, if you live in the suburbs, on an hour commuting time is about to go, and, as measured by the income level of normal programmer, even if it has been such a long commute, You can’t afford a nice apartment in a first-tier city.
I used to tell myself that when I was working, I should never waste time commuting, because the time wasted commuting is definitely more valuable than the extra money spent. Why do you say that?
I remember zhang Ge said a poisonous chicken soup “if you keep learning on the subway, then you will exceed 99% of the people, and then continue to crowd the subway like 99% of people”, in fact, not without reason.
During the morning and evening rush hours, the subway entrances of Lujiazui and Xierqi are always full of people, and you can’t expect to pull out your phone on the subway and convince yourself that you can study on the subway without distractions.
I’m afraid some people will say, I just can, and I always insist on doing so. Maybe you are one of the few people with strong willpower. I admire you very much, but I don’t think I can do this.
Leaving that aside, commuting is often one of the most time – and energy-draining things you can do. It takes an hour to get to work on the subway, but it takes 10 minutes to walk to work.
You’ve had a hard day at work, only to face the evening rush hour all over again, exhausted and unable to pull out your phone as the subway crowds disperse you.
When you choose to save money and live too far from the place where the company, in fact you is to use time in return for the money, it is unwise to use a phrase is “an inch of time an inch of gold, an inch of gold will not buy an inch time”, because this time may be able to create more value for you, these values may be completely can overwrite your saved the rent.
Take advantage of these time, you can have a better state of mind, better prepared to work and deal with household chores, you can even go to develop sideline, developing their own amateur skills, if these are not important to you, you can also choose to exercise in the gym for a while the body, see one or two books, which are not more pleasant than crowded subway?
When I worked as an intern in Baidu, it only took me 15 minutes to walk to work every day, but one of my colleagues had to take the subway for more than an hour to go to work every day. I felt distressed and did not understand. I wonder if she has figured this out now.
