Do you mean disregard inflation and live today on $2.00 an hour? Really?
I know I could live on today's minimum wage. Many people are actually doing just that. A lot of people on social security are doing that, as the average check is just above minimum wage. Mine is a good bit below that. Luckily I'm in better circumstances than back in the 70s. I don't have any vices, and I don't have a lot of the bills average people have, such as cell phone, tv, etc.
What I mean is, if you were in the same circumstances as you were in the 70s, do you think you could do the same things today to just pick up, move, find a car and a cheap house, and find work?
Yes I could move to another town and find a job within the day. Every single time in the past that I've needed to get a job, I got one in a day.
You don't necessarily need a car. You can take a bus to another town. You can buy a cheap used bicycle or just walk. I used to walk for miles every day. And it doesn't have to be a house. Used mobile homes are dirt cheap.
