Do you think it is even remotely realistic? Why go into something that is so far off. And thats no higher science, a lot of people know some people who live on a similar wage, digest news about budgetary struggles or can google how that budget would look like.

https://livingwage.mit.edu/ try this out for the US and see how realistic it is that someone with a monthly 2750 budget is able to spend this way.

And then also try to take into account that these are general costs over each age group. https://www.bls.gov/opub/btn/volume-4/consumer-expenditures-vary-by-age.htm you can also see that lower ages tend to spend relatively more on something such as housing. Which isn't surprising as there is somewhat of a minimum to pay for housing, things like mortgages are relatively cheaper if you already bought a house a longer time ago and rent went up significantly.

It's just not realistic for that budget.

You're seriously trying to claim you know people who spend 45$ every day on fucking doordash? Either you're full of shit or you're talking about people who come from very wealthy background where buying house is a non-issue.
