Rent, groceries, gas, healthcare, student loans, childcare, dating, small comforts, the occasional dinner out… For many people in North America, even a “good” income no longer seems to guarantee financial ease. Life feels more expensive, more fragile, and harder to plan.
In this discussion, we’ll explore why so many people feel like their money disappears the moment it arrives, how the cost of living is reshaping where we live, whether we start families, how we date, how we save, and what kind of future we can imagine. We’ll also look at how global events — from energy shocks and oil prices to supply chains and geopolitical instability — can end up affecting our rent, grocery bills, and daily choices.
We’ll meet online, coffee or another drink in hand, and talk with other curious people trying to make sense of a very familiar feeling: working hard, doing “the right things,” and still wondering why life feels unaffordable.
Some topics we’ll touch on:
• Rent, groceries, gas, and healthcare: why does everyday life cost so much?
• Good jobs, decent salaries, and still feeling financially stretched
• Dating, marriage, kids, and the rising price of adulthood
• Student loans, credit cards, and the disappearance of savings
• Small comforts, guilt, and the psychology of spending
• Oil, global instability, and how distant crises reach our wallets
• Personal responsibility vs. broken systems: where do we draw the line?
• And so much more!
By the end of the discussion, we’ll have explored an uncomfortable but very current question: are we living beyond our means, or has a dignified life simply become too expensive?
