2019-07-19 at 12:09 PM UTChow much do you get for welfare in OT? Around here it's 960 I think maxed out.

2019-07-19 at 12:12 PM UTCI'm sure that's just an average... that's not the case for every single apartment in the whole country.

2019-07-19 at 12:17 PM UTCThat's $17 an hour for you Americans. It would probably be difficult to rent an apartment with utilities and a car payment making less than that without overtime so I can sorta see why they say that
I also waste a lot of money on retarded shit though -
2019-07-19 at 12:20 PM UTCBack when I graduated college, yanno, when I rode my dinosaur to school; I started out at $7.35, and it paid all the bills. I’ve always had my own place.
Crazy, huh? -

Well you're making everyone else pay for it...the government just collect the money from them.
Moochers should be sent back to where they came from. -
2019-07-19 at 12:20 PM UTCAlso,
The report calculates rental wages by breaking down the hourly wage that full-time minimum wage workers would need to earn in order to afford rent for an average one- or two-bedroom apartment without spending more than 30 per cent of their earnings.
Of course it's going to say nobody can afford anything with a measurement like that. What the fuck do people spend 70% of their income on that isn't rent?
Worthless study imo -

400$ but I am allowed to make another $200 on the side before they deduct it from my welfare

Just cities. I used to rent a two bedroom house with a basememt, garage fruit trees for $650/month in rural British Columbia -

It's not mooching when they CANT AFFORD IT
the only other option is being homeless. I'm totally cool with living in a tent city with 10,000 people but I don't think society or the government would want that
Welfare is cheaper than dealing with a bunch of homeless tweekersThe following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

Making $22/hr is easy but when you get an education and make $22/hr you are basically working class and if you have student debt and spent most of your income on rent you are fucked.
That's why I didn't go to school I needed to start working when I was 14 years old to help my parents or else we would have nowhere to live
The only way people get ahead is by living with 10 family members but white culture is against that so only Indians and Chinese save money -

You don't need to go to school to get an education...thinking that is your first mistake. MOST of my marketable skills I got myself on over a period of years of self education.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR FUCKING SELF!
Anything else is mooching off others who did the above.
I don't disagree with that but most working class people just aren't smart enough and don't have the skills to make anything more than that which means even if they make $22/hr they are only just getting by which according to Obama is the definition of the American Dream living paycheck to paycheck
The problem is that everything is overpriced and minimum wage needs to be higherThe following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

Look, I came to the good ol USA 22yrs ago with a couple of grand 2 suitcases and my own damn self. I'm now an Operations Manager for a OEM and also design most of the companies new products. I don't have any official schooling for any of that. I taught myself electronic engineering (designing circuit boards etc), 3D design, programming, natural leadership, critical thinking, learning the needs of the market we are in etc etc etc.
You don't need to pay some twat $20,000 a semester to read a few fucking books...you can do that all by yourself.
Within 1yr of coming to the US I was a department head at Compaq with 3 shifts (103 people) reporting to me.
Not bragging, pointing out this idea you NEED to go to school to learn is bullshit and you're buying into the brainwashing. 99% of idiots I meet with degrees are as dumb as a min wage worker...I might even say dumber because they have student loans.

2019-07-19 at 12:44 PM UTC11.06 an hour times 40 hours a week times four weeks per month equals 1769 income per month
Minus 15% tax = 1504 per month
Average cost for two bedroom in Canada = $989
Call it 125 each for water and electricity, even though that's way too high for most unless you're a complete retard with the shower
That puts you 35 over budget.
If you had a job making $1 over minimum wage, you could barely get by. If you both worked you'd be fine. And that's at bare minimum, no education, no experience. We all had to start out like that. I still remember having to scrape change together for gas money to get to work in my shitbox car everyday. And our minimum wage is much lower.
It's doable, but it sucks. And it's definitely not "120 hours a week," you could do it on 50.
But it pays off in the long run. Better to start now than when you're older and can't do physical labor with no work history -
2019-07-19 at 12:50 PM UTCI'm not justifying anything, I have to go to work tomorrow.
Just pointing out how the economy is fucked and working barely keeps you off the streets which is why most people just say fuck it and sell drugs
