OK for an apartment you'd need the down payment. You'd have to save up for that. You need transportation to and from work. Figure a $2.10 bus ride a day if you're lucky, maybe $8 if you're not so lucky(which is more likely, since most of the low wage jobs require a commute to a more affluent area). You need to eat, but you have no refridgerator or stove so you have to eat out. You COULD get fresh food but they don't sell that in the ghetto, they only sell fast food. You CAN get a refridgerator but without the money and no credit you'd have to rent one for a ridiculous amount.
You can't even get a bank account because again, there's no banks in the ghetto. You have to use a check cashing place that takes a chunk of your profit, that's more money gone. It's ALOT more expensive to live as a poor person than a person who has something to start out with.
