drive an Uber or whatever, go off to find a cheap place to live and go to the beach for a year.

Shockingly tone-deaf.

When I was laid off, my savings were running very low after about 3 months until I was able to get another job.

Absolutely no way I would be able to take a year off to go to the beach. It's like he doesn't realize we all aren't CEOs.

cheap place to live and go to the beach for a year.

Cheap place... Lol

Close to the beach!? LMFAO

This ghoul isn't even from our reality and they're trying to tell us to chill out. Stick to your own dimension where housing is affordable, especially with any proximity to a beach...

What? Don't you all have a beach house and million in the bank?
