Financial decisions still hurt me but my secret, two incomes, two gamers, no kids and no car

Hubby and I don't plan on kids or car but we also can't really do work either, so we're planning on a joined gaming YouTube channel.

I wish you luck. We’ve got a couple setup with side by side monitor desk setup, and a side by side tv in living room for couch gaming. Took a few years of gradual planning to reach what we have now but we love it, feels like even when playing our own games we can spend time together as if we are playing together.

Weve thought about streaming. But gotta research mics since being side by side background voices from each other perspective would be blatantly obvious

It was originally her idea. I thought our screens side by side would be distracting. But i ended up loving it. Even when we are both playing single player games, still feels like im playing with her

Aww 🥹 Are they just regular screens? I imagine not being curved is why you thought it might be distracting 😅

I doubt curved and non curved would change anything. Im just sensitive to light, rgb on our pcs and xbox ally x distracts me a decent but both are flat 24inch monitors. The tvs are 50 inch samsungs

Ahh, okay. My husband is photosensitive, so I get the pain ☹️ Covered his face for a bit while I was at physical therapy today. Not fun.
