What was your rent? That is a key part of the equation in the book. If you can't find an affordable apartment, or don't have enough for a security deposit, you are probably going to spend more (there are many people living at motels because of the shortage of affordable housing). In one of the writer's jobs she was making $7/hr while paying $50 a day for a room. The math there...doesn't exactly work. And Walmart apparently withholds the first week of pay (as did The Maids). So unless you have, essentially, "startup" money, you're in a bit of a bind. And even if you do you may still be.
