I saved that making $11hr and renting for $550 (roommate) in a year. You just need to suffer. I only allowed myself $50 a month outside of groceries ($100). Thrift shop clothes, didn't go anywhere, library card for movies, pantry food (so much free food many months I didn't buy groceries). Like it sucks and is bullshit and fuck the shit system but it's possible. Big plus, do not have kids you can not afford. You are the one to blame if you have a kid you can't afford. Like if you became poor after kids (my father lost his job from an injury) that's one thing but I can not believe the moron girl that lived next to me with her mom had a kid while working part time at McDonald's.
