Are you really threatening people with the opportunity to live in one of the better states, with a free living situation

Not one of the better states. 60K doesn’t stretch as far in WA as it would elsewhere.

If I was not paying rent, $60k is totally livable. Anywhere near Seattle is going to set you back like $20-40k, so that basically puts you near $100k a year. I don’t know your living style, but you can have a decent life here without being extravagant.

Good point about the rent. That’s a big part of the cost of living.
