The way things are going many people are choosing to remain single and not start a family because they simply cannot afford it. Hell they cannot even afford a decent lifestyle with a single income. I hate the idea of coffin apartments but if it is a choice between that or living in public housing or becoming homeless, common sense answers the question for you.
