struggling to afford housing and truck lease

I feel like I'm drowning in housing costs and need to get out of my condo and truck lease to finally breathe financially

What I wish I knew
"I wish I had invested more in a cheaper area or considered renting sooner"
If I could tell you one thing
"Consider renting instead of buying, especially in areas with high housing costs"
