You can get an apartment for gardening small things with a chocobo stable. If you can't keep up with the more expensive house then just go with an apartment, it won't shove you out and toss you stuff into the incinerator after 90 days. 90 days is a good long time. Between 90 days if you don't have $15 to pop in and grab your stuff then you maybe shouldn't be playing.

Either get an apartment and take as long as you want to come back or just resign yourself to the responsibility that comes with buying a house in this game.
Apartments are nice band-aid fix.

I have $15 dollars, it's not that I was strapped for cash in any way, I just wanted a break. It probably wasn't even going to be a 45 day break, to be honest. The developers released a bad design, and I felt that it wasn't worth paying for. I don't want to spend money on a game that punishes its players like that.

Back to the apartments, players now have options for housing without being punished for playing. I still believe they need to fix that for real houses, but whatever. But that doesn't change the fact that I did get the full punishment for their bad design, and having been punished for their bad system so severely makes me question whether or not I should ever give them more money.
