If I make $10 an hour how do I even live off that? That’s like $1450-1500 a month take home after tax. How am I supposed to rent a 1br apartment or have a car to get to work when it costs 2k+ month just for those 2 things alone?

I did it but my girl was making min wage too. We worked up in wage and saved a lot. Bought shitty toyota and nissan and I got 2 jobs while we stacked BTC and boomer investments. BTC eventually reached our retirement point, I trade this and she got her real estate license recently. Only took a few years to buy a townhome, car etc. 3 years as a waggie and 1 as a trader, not that hard

You don't. You slowly take on debt while enjoying no parts of life, and spend all your birthday and christmas money on catching up on bills. Then you suck some old Jews dick and hope he makes you a shift manager of the macdolans just in time to get a severe grease burn on your face that shackles you to health care payments like a slave forever. Maybe if your lucky you'll die with only a slightly negative networth. But see, if you get yourself addicted to heroin and have 4 children you will get free gibs from the government without working. See, don't you feel dumb for trying to compete with illegal immigrants and provide services for society

The redpill is that those jobs are only supposed to be meant for high school and college kids aged 18-23 so that they have pocket money to go out and party. No self-respecting adult is supposed to be doing those jobs unless they're some retired older person that got bored and wanted a part-time job.

LIVE SOMEWHERE CHEAPER.
I don’t understand how there are so many of you retards. It doesnt cost $2k a month for a house and a car. The fuck is wrong with you? Move somewhere in the midwest. Small towns are good but not too small that there isnt a Wal-mart supercenter. Yes, that actually is a good indicator. These billion dollar corporations have done the research for you already. They know where there are enough people with disposable income to make their store more likely to turn a profit. If there isnt a Wal-mart within a 10 minute drive, there probably arent any jobs. If you find government subsidized housing(which requires you make less than a certain amount per year) you can get an apartment for $200-$350 a month including utilities. If not, you can find multiple boomers willing to rent out half a converted duplex for $450 a month. Your car SHOULD NOT COST YOU MONTHLY. I am going to say that in a different way so you retards can understand. CAR LOANS ARE FOR PEOPLE WHO ALREADY MAKE GOOD MONEY. If you have a shit job, buy a shit car. Take an uber to work until you can afford a beater for less than or equal to $1k. They are fucking everywhere. Look for a chevy cavalier or a toyota corolla. They are good on gas and last forever. Car insurance should just be liability. Pretty sure Geico or the General will provide that for less than $75 a month. A single person can easily live off of $150 a month in food. LEARN TO COOK. It will improve your quality of life significantly. So all together thats $675 a month. Plus a phone bill, mine is $35 a month. Making $7.50 an hour working 40 hours a week you will have $900 a month after taxes. $710 in monthly expenses leaves you with $190 a month to buy drugs you fucking failure degenerate. Dont tell me this is inaccurate because I FUCKING LIVED IT. You arent entitled to nice things. Quit whining about how life isnt fair. If you dont like it, fucking quit then. Rope costs significantly less than everything I listed.

>How am I supposed to live off that
You aren't supposed to, that's the point. Look at malthusian eugenism, and you'll understand minimum wage is how the elite is culling what they consider the unfit homo povertus : if you are too poor to sustain yourself, chances are high you'll never be able to sustain kids thus never reproduce. It's their way of applying societal darwinism : genocide the proletariat generation by generation.

They keep saying it is for high school kids but the over abundance of those jobs plus high requirements and outright catch 22s for better paying jobs in general (not all) says otherwise. Then theres the people who defend this with getting a roommate(s), okay why not live at home and save way more? Oh right there's also the group of people that mock you for living with your parents.

Ease up on the tie pods. Blue collar jobs and trades like machine working and welding are still very much available and they will pay a lot more than $10 an hour. However they require effort and dedication and the people you work with would most likely call you an entitled faggot so I understand why you dont apply to them.

As someone suffering in this situation - PIP is also based on how much the government wants to ass fuck you.

You can get a new car at $300 a month for seven years, not that i'd recommend it. Obviously you could just buy a $1000 clunker which you should do.

>That's like 1450 a month

Is this assuming you work 40 a week? Because if you're getting paid min you're very likely going to get 20-25 a week unless you have a second job.

>How do I live off that
you don't, the system is designed for you to fail, you need have experience to get a better job, but you have to suffer there, and yet you'll see people who have been there 10-12 years never leaving and other nonsense.

It's fucking ridiculous, wageslavery is a real concept and I am legit jealous for NEETs. Having my own money is amazing, but not when I'm giving up most of my waking hours serving some dipshit who would pay me pennies if legally allowed and only tolerates my existence because I have a pulse and my job isn't automated yet.
