Affordable in Durban, Peaceful at Home: A Seniorās Three-Step Method
The trade-off is often framed as ācheap versus safeā. In reality, the trade-off is āchaotic versus structuredā.
Structured living reduces friction. That keeps the total cost of living lower over time.
Three practical tips you can use immediately
1) Step 1: Define non-negotiables
Write down your non-negotiables: no alcohol, no noise, strict visitor policy, and a calm night environment.
2) Step 2: Choose a place that screens
If the application process is structured, the household is usually curated. That is how peaceful environments are protected.
3) Step 3: Confirm daily practicality
Gas cookers and fridges, 40GB+ WiāFi, and comfortable mattresses are practical necessitiesānot luxuries.
