I think you're doing better than a lot of younger people at your age. So many Americans make way less. In recent years, there was a estimate that about 50% of Americans make about 16 dollars or less an hour. It was only in recent few years that federal jobs are required to pay 15 dollars minimum and there are a lot of civilian jobs where in military bases where the pay was so low. As someone who has witnessed this first handed, these people are like grown adults and even older folks with these jobs.
