Hell, I'd personally camp out in a storage unit if I could. All I want is a place to sleep and store a handful of things. Since zoning laws prevent that and because there are few affordable & legal options, I'm always forced to rent a larger amount of space than I need for thousands of dollars rather than hundreds. I'm not saying that I'd live so minimally forever, but as a single guy trying to save money, it'd be be a boon to my finances.

The reason I don't currently live at PodShare, like the subject in that article, is that I remembered seeing the monthly fee being well over $1000, at which point it makes no sense over simply renting a room in someone's house.
