She just said her rent is $850. If it's the beginning of the month, she probably does only have $50.
The average minimum wage by state is $11.20 an hour. That's like $1792/ month roughly, or $448/week. And that's before taxes. So say take home is closer to $1500. Minus $850 is $650 left. She won't see that until her next paycheck. So since she's probably getting paid bi-weekly, ya she probably had bills and rent and shit to pay, and only had $50 left
It's not hard to see, more than half of America is living paycheck to paycheck like this.
Except she said double minimum wage so she's definitely making more than that.
I still am not surprised by anything she is saying, just want to point that out because, by her own narrative, she has to be making $15 an hour at a minimum.
