A Peter Wang
A Peter Wang is when a landlord jacks up rent so high it feels like you’ve been hit by a truck while also being yelled at by a dragon. They call it love, but it’s just a scam to make your wallet cry.
My rent went from $800 to $1,200. Love is expensive, I guess.
They told me it was for ‘better living conditions.’ I live in a hole now.
I thought I was getting a raise. Turns out I was getting a punch in the gut.
