Reply to comment by Amon213 in Here’s how I lived off of $23k last year. by ThrowRAanyways2

Nah don’t feel bad for me. I agreed to do this knowing I’d be on a low income. Everyone has a choice. I’m rly happy that you made it to $72k without a bachelors!

I hope you get to 50 this year at least. Good luck, man.

OP is a full time graduate student. They’re getting free education and health insurance and will hopefully have a good salary after graduation.

Um I'm not trying to be negative but I know a few people who graduated with degrees personally. One was stocking shelves at a Western Beef, another ended up as a cashier at Barnes & Nobles (this was a couple of years ago so she could've found something better by now), a good friend of mine graduated with a degree in music and he's currently waiting tables. Not trying to shit on anyone. We do what we must to survive.
