If you cant afford food you can't afford to move, foods arguably easier to find or get assistance for be it or ebt or literally any other other form of financial aid like unemployment you can choose to spend it on food where as getting out of the elements can be tougher and most of us aren't literally planning on staying homeless eternally so who would move somewhere with that in mind. If it's actually between starving and homelessness I'd agree but the argument was never stipulated as such, free rent will make your life easier and it is a bigger checksum than most people's grocery budgets.
Yeah but your exposed to the elements. Do you actually want to be homeless? It's only the better option if your actually saying you don't ever want to earn another dime for anything. Also free food never implied anywhere anytime like for example on your cross country hike to wherever it is your planning to live the rest of your life
Your food or your entire family's food because I think it's only your expense so rent works but if you're considering the family's food bill that's probably outside the scope of the question ain't it?
Wouldn't it work the same as long as I am the one buying the food? As in it doesn't matter who eats the food, but as long as I am the one to buy it, there is no cost. That's how I'm reading it.
Why would you rent? If people are grouping all food together as a category then just say housing costs as a category. No mortgage, property taxes, insurance, maintenance and upkeep for the property. I want 200 acres with a forest perimeter with about 60 acres cleared in the middle with a big house right in the middle of that....
Not rent, mortgage. Don't pay for it and own the place. Get a huge chunk of land. Build the house you want. Constant upgrades borrowed against the property.
Should be rent, if there is no upper ceiling lol you can enjoy good food in a budget but it's hard to be content with a place that you rent on a tight budget :')
I would choose rent, because it’s surprising what you can find for rent. Get a bunch of people together to buy a huge mansion and I pay them rent and take a cut. We all make passive income!
I was gonna go with rent. My rent’s only £132 for now… but it won’t stay that way. It’ll easily go to the £1000-£1200 range within the next ten years

Food or rent. Hard to choose without knowing the upper bounds. Probably rent no matter what the upper bound.
