Here's a challenge some of us face everyday but could you survive making $9 an hour?
This online game challenges you but because it offers limited choices, it can be considered a realistic simulation.
I make less than $9 an hour and work part-time.. if I didn't live in a rent-subsidized complex, I couldn't make it on what I bring home a month.
If I ever had to move for any reason, barring rooming with others, I couldn't make it living alone on what I make.
And because my rent is based on income, my situation wouldn't improve much at $9.. in fact, I'd be worse off in the long run.
