Hope you never get sick and have to call in, your car never breaks down, and you never have a medical emergency!

  If you get seriously sick 3X (5 time even) that amount won't save you. But as things stand now you'd have free(ish) healthcare anyway. Car? What car? You are walking, biking, riding the bus. It's doable, barely, just barely and there will be troubles if anything comes up.

    Would that qualify as life or merely survival? Can a person under these conditions become a parent? Can someone in this situation raise a healthy kid? I doubt it.

      No, you can't have a kid on this money. Nor is it a very good life in terms of material possessions. You probably can't afford a horse either. But none of those things were specified in OP's post.

        That's more or less what it meant - a meaningful, healthy life, above merely survival. I would know - I'm the OP.

          Ah yes, indeed you are. I had to go further up the tree it appears. I don't disagree. Not a good life. People live on a buck here and there and change they find in vending machines as far as a "living" goes. Technically they are "alive" but it can't be nice way to live. Kind of makes one wonder exactly what level of "living" is acceptable. I suppose preferences vary.
