Luke Iseman has figured out how to afford the San Francisco Bay area. He lives in a shipping container.

The Wharton School graduate’s 160-square-foot box has a camp stove and a shower made of old boat hulls. It’s one of 11 miniature residences inside a warehouse he leases across the Bay Bridge from the city, where his tenants share communal toilets and a sense of adventure. Legal? No, but he’s eluded code enforcers who rousted what he calls cargotopia from two other sites. If all goes according to plan, he’ll get a startup out of his response to the most expensive (http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-07-17/san-francisco-area-home-prices-near-record-as-sales-surge) U.S. housing market.

I had hard times
not so long ago
I had nothing to eat
nothing to drink
I had no dough

so I wandered
the streets
looking for anything
I could eats

people stared
some would frown
it was hard times
in a big lonely town

then I found a wallet
laying by a garbage can
it had a wad of money
now I"m a rich man

I don't wander
those streets anymore
now it's whiskey and women
good times galore

Wouldn't be surprised if this guy hits it big with this idea. 20K and you own a studio basically, not bad for California imo.

Nah we moved into a house on the SE side at the beginning of July. Nice, quiet neighborhood but going to stores/restaurants sucks...I had forgotten how ghetto motherfuckers are down here. We'll probably try to move back up to the NW in 5-10 yrs.

You found one yet?

Hell.. It took 2 years, but we just closed on our house a couple weeks ago.. I'm on the NW near Old Tezel/1604.. Got it for almost 10k less than value. Shit's nice, even has a pool. Ive had to learn how to balance the water w/ chemicals, but its pretty sick being able to go out and drink in the pool til 4 am if we want to :tu

:lol ghetto ass SEsiders.. Why does it suck going to stores and shit out there?

I was going to recommend converting to saltwater when you get a chance. It's way easier to manage. I don't think it's expensive either. Was going to post a video on converting but then stumbled upon something else you might want to consider.

I heard about saltwater, but I think i'll stay w/ what I have.. once I got the PH and the alkalinity to where it needed to be, shocking the pool and adding a tab of chlorine per week is easy.. It's gonna be a bitch if we have another rainy spell like we had a few months back though.

And thanks for the affordable dance floor pool cover recommendation. Every pool owner should have one of those :tu

Damn nice location and a pool. Congrats bro. I wanted a pool too but most houses with them were out of my price range, the ones that weren't had those shitty above ground pools. I'm thinking about building myself a little lap pool though.

My neighborhood is quiet but once you venture out everything is always packed with those ghetto motherfuckers. Loud bitches with a bunch of kids, fools still trying to act hard in their 20s/30s instead of growing up, etc. Just a different way of living down here tbh.

I know exactly what you mean.. Those trashy ass mother fuckers are on like 3/4 of city.

We had some ghetto ass neighbor renting the house across the street, and of course, out of all the neighbors who were cool and welcoming, hes outside trying to look hard with his pit, mad dogging and shit when i said whats up :lol

The just evicted his broke ass, so he can take his 6 piece of shit vehicles and park somewhere else now.
