The Nahployment 'Crisis'

I mean, that’s $2400, and that’ll last me just fine for at least 3 months.

Didn’t you write this just last year?

$4.00/hr goes to rent. ($693.20/mo or ~$22.79/day)

Maybe, if you have a roommate. But even then, that’s stretching it a bit. Cheapest 2 bed around here is a bit over 1200 a month, and it’s in a sketchy part of town.

@Max_S

$3.75/hr goes to food. (~$650/mo or ~$21.36/day)

I can make that work, but I don’t eat out. If I lived in a cheap apartment, not near a store, and I see that you didn’t budget for a car or transportation, then cooking is problematic.

@Max_S

$0.87/mo goes to utilities. (~$150/mo)

Maybe covers electricity. Probably not internet, probably not phone, even a cheap one.

$693.20 + $650.00 + $150.00 = $1,493.20 / mo, which you acknowledged was barely liveable if even that. You laughed at me then. How can you now claim to be able to live on $2,400 - less than twice that amount - for three months?
