A student at the University of British Columbia has found an unconventional way to save money: instead of paying rent near campus, he flies from his home in Calgary to Vancouver twice a week. Each round trip costs $150, bringing his monthly travel expenses to $1,200,far less than the $2,100 he would have to pay for rent in the city where he studies. The story, shared by JCFights on X, highlights the extreme lengths some students go to in order to avoid high housing costs.
