Yep, the evil landlord who lives in the burbs. He's the one who started this. Who spent his poorest years in Duluth. You think you had dirt cheap rent? Try living in the Central Hillside of Duluth at the height of their great depression years. 1979-1989. We had a cool 3 bedroom for 270 a month all but phone paid for. Each summer and fall we would "re-negotiate". The poor landlord from St. Paul was so desperate to have warm, rent paying bodies. When I moved out, the guys were paying a COMBINED $90 a month. Based on my recollections, I was probably paying more then 30% of my monthly income on rent. That was in 1986.
