Default Re: Single Mom Live off $10 an hour?

Yes its possible I was a single mom with 1 daughter from the time I was 18 to 24 & I started out at 18 making $6.50 an hour & when I was 24 thats when I married my husband & became a sahm anyways at the time I was finally making a little over $10 an hour.

And that was just 4 years ago.

When I first moved out of my moms house I bought a trailer it was cheaper than renting. I got free water & cable & utilites were cheap & it was a nice trailer. Later on I saved enough to buy a house. I always bought used cars very cheap!


Another thing I would do is use your tax refund if you get like EIC & all that stuff & use that money to buy a car or maybe a mobile home for you & your daughter. I never moved back home either since I owned my own place & thats one thing I would never want to do LOL so I did whatever it took so I wouldnt have too I love my mom dearly but couldnt live with her again!
