About the whole "staying in hotel rooms every night" thing

[Starkley]

Firstly, this is the only forum I've ever been on that has a problem with multiple threads. It's silly, but probably a result of the fact that there are no MH subforums. But this thread ain't about dat shit

That first hotel from Season 2 wasn't that tall, which makes me suspect it was more motel-y than hotel-y. Probably pretty cheap, yeah. And yeah, he has his car. Between savings, possibly having parents, insurance, and odd jobs, it's not unfeasible for him to survive as he has been. He was free for a decent while; it's not unlikely that he managed to hold down a job for that time. And now that he's basically hanging around the same area, he could have a new stable job.

So yeah, I don't see a problem with Jay being able to survive.

Then again, I haven't really seen anyone complaining about that aspect of the realism...? Maybe that's just me.

In any case, I like that this thread will be openly available for any newbies who want to question the thought. No one's going to rifle through pages and pages of unrelated threads (this could really go in any Entry, and later on no noobs would ever find it). So it's good that this has its own thread.

People have complained about it. Personally though, I liked Tim's answer of "Who gives a shit?" better.

Okay now, I don't think this needs anything more than Tim's answer.

There was already a post about this topic, and it was agreed that insurance, odd jobs, and parents were jays funding. But I liked tims " who gives a shit" answer the best.

All of this isn't even taking into account a couple of things:

1. Student loans. You can get WAY more money than you need out of student loans--especially if you don't end up taking any classes (in which case they'd come after you for the money... But Jay doesn't have a permanent residence, so they'd have a hard time tracking him down to collect.)

2. Credit. If Jay were smart about it, he could live for a while on credit cards, assuming he started the series in a position to acquire them. Again, he might not be able to make the payments, so they would get shut down and debt collectors would come, but see above.

3. His parents. While he's been silent on the subject of them, it's not entirely unlikely that he could contact his parents for money. This could go as low as $20 every so often to see him through, to "daddy is wealthy lol look at all these benjamins".

In short, anything from an intricate credit scheme to a handwavey "daddy's money" solution could solve this problem, so in the immortal words of Captain Sideburns himself, again, "who gives a shit?"

Once again, "Who gives a shit?" is the best answer. Sure we believe that Alex killed someone and that people are being stalked by a faceless freak, so how hard is it to believe that Jay has money?
