The choice of words was poor, but living with roomates and commuting an hour when your salary is $100/year is, in my opinion, unreasonable. There's good food and roofing available all over the country.

- pmiller2 10y ago$100K/year is an entry level salary at many places these days. If you're not entry level and don't have absurd amounts of student loans, then you can afford to do better. You can have less of a commute, or maybe not live with roommates, and actually put some money into savings. It's still nowhere near poverty wages.
