I have never had a hard time finding jobs that pay me well. Maybe it's a combo of job experience, and personality. I tend to end up as shift lead pretty quickly no matter what the job. I also get jobs that pay higher than minimum wage. Pay your bills first (gas, food, and clothing included), and then add fun to your budget. I have 2 kids, am a single parent, and the only income. I have no issues with money. As long as I have a job, no problem.

Advice: Don't be afraid to apply for that job that pays well, but has 1 or 2 things required you don't have. Some places set too high of an expectation, and never get anyone perfect to apply. So apply anyway.

With or without my epilepsy I think I would go through money like it grows on trees. Not very good with my money, but I am getting better.

I learned a long time ago not to overspend and waste money. have everything I need and a few things I don't need. Being retired and living on social security makes a person spend wisely.

When on Social Security, it’s very difficult with today’s living cost , Food and essentials cost going up , compared from my younger days in life .

I live on Medicare, not muche so yes my husband and I live on a tight budget.
