Reply to "How To Get By In The Minors On $1,500 A Month"

I guess the upside to having these problems is that it means you made it to the MiLB and are in fact still living the dream.  

Ran across an article on some Triple A guys out of Nashville.  Hardest part was trying to find affordable housing as well as somewhere that would be flexible on the lease terms - said Craig's list and such were the best sources where you ended up dealing with an individual lessor.  Also said the recent stadium upgrade did wonders in using tickets as currency of sorts.  The old ballpark was truly crummy and, as such, tickets were of little value.  Have heard Nashville rents have gone through the roof during the past 4-5 years so that city might be a good  case study.  Had a chance to email author of the Deadspin article and she says she wants to do a series of articles, the good outcomes like the first article as well as examples of train wrecks where everything goes wrong, and admits that this initial one-week example was probably flawed in showing the guy winding up with $200 in his pockets as though that happened week-in, week-out.
