Now if only my rent would drop outside the ATL Metro area
Excellent point.
I’m curious what the guidelines would be as a preparation for the potential of a new category. Like leave the area? I know changing how we do things now on a global scale should help, but in case and due to cynicism, it might not help. But what should people do for the seemingly inevitable storms?

Hey Folks, I've been in college for six years now and have dropped classes left and right. I had been consistent in the beginning and, of course, Covid had caused a bit of problems with consistency. Since that time, my grades slipped. I've dropped classes as well. I should have graduated two years ago however i've been working to survive since. I've got roughly 40k in student loan debt. each time I try and take classes again, I manage to for about two weeks and then after i have some random event in life come in and just ruin my motivation. (death, sickness, major change in lifestyle, etc.). I've been working in a career that was based upon my major and it is a decently comfortable and consistent job (IT), with some stress just due to the human interaction, however I do have issues with debt (working well to get out of but won't be completely out of non-student loan debt until 2025). I'd consider going back in about six or seven years depending on how life treats me, but is it worth cutting my losses, start paying back student loans, and focus on my job? If I do manage to take classes, i'll have about two years worth of classes to bust through but I'm not sure if I can push that much effort back out.
But hear me out: what about the stock holders bob, who's helping them out? HUH!?!?!? /s
It sucks, this is something that the government should be taking care of however with how screwed up it has been so far, and as a result regular folks whom of which have not been impacted as greatly by this will pass it by. Further ostracizing these folks who had an unfortunate run in with life.
