MIT Pretends $8.75 is a minimum wage. that's a joke. They show you the typical expenses for one adult, and well frankly it's awfully optimistic...you need to make more than $10/hr to live at that level, and make 18K a year. Good luck i guess....because I really don't see a lot of room left over for life and things that happen and or unexpected expenses....Like for instance when my Mazda Took a crap on me and the struts blew out...Thank god I had some bonds left, because at $8.50/hr (close to the "living" wage) it's just not enought to pull $1,000 out of my butt to fix it.

  2. Superman
  3. Astronaut
  4. Fighter Pilot
