My dad's first job paid enough to cover rent.
Not half the rent.
All the rent.
One paycheck.
I showed him an apartment listing near me.
$2,100 a month.
Then I showed him the starting salary for the same type of job he had at my age.
He stared at the screen for a second.
Then said:
"That doesn't add up."
Exactly.

🚨 White Man tries to kidnap Black woman by pretending to be a cop — she gets rescued by truck driver.
In Aiken County, South Carolina, a young woman who had just graduated ran into traffic on a rural road, begging for help. She had escaped a white Cadillac after 39-year-old Jonathan Willard posed as a police officer, handcuffed her, took her phone and diploma, and tried to run her over when she fled.
Truck driver Anthony Moore stopped his rig. The woman jumped in as Willard approached claiming to be law enforcement. Another driver called 911 and helped remove the handcuffs.
Willard took off but was quickly arrested and charged with impersonating a law enforcement officer and kidnapping.
What would you do if you saw someone running into traffic screaming they were being kidnapped?
