No car. I only use public transit a few times a week. I walk a lot. It's not hard to eat for $100-200 a month if you cook for yourself. You're right it's a sacrifice, but it's doable. It would not be doable on $0, and that's the difference basic income makes. I have an immense amount of stress from coming up with the $1000 every month. It's hard to predict, but I suspect without that distraction I would be further along in my process. It's been slow, although I'm almost done with this phase.
