Reply to comment by kwiknkleen in What do you consider to be a "good" salary/hourly pay in Washington State? by Total-Group-9364

Yeah I was able to do it on 16.50. I payed $850 in rent. I live paycheck to paycheck my whole life and only had to be late on rent 2 very desperate times when I got laid off.

Living paycheck to paycheck is not living.

Well that's the reality for most Americans. Its plenty good. My bills are paid, I own my cars, still have a bit left for hobbies or vacation. Only downside is more stress from no safety net. Also getting laid off is terrible.
