If it weren't for Susan letting Don Quixote stay in his current house for free, rent would have likely taken another quarter of his income.
After factoring in the medical insurance he planned to buy, plus utilities, internet, and phone bills, Don Quixote estimated that he would only have about 3,000 USD more in disposable income compared to his previous after-tax earnings of 3,500 USD.
Still, this was a huge step forward!
It meant Don Quixote had finally escaped that damned Alice line! He had good health insurance, a proper job, and had rejoined normal society. Most importantly, he could finally save money! He could finally afford to see a doctor!
"Congratulations!" Li Wei said, genuinely happy for him. "You can finally breathe a sigh of relief."
