This totally real person is also paying $40 for their cell bill and $30 for a personal cleaner per month lol. This totally real person is also only spending $250 dining out per month but also $13 per day on groceries for one person for some reason. Also also this person (who is totally real I swear) is paying $20 per month for internet but for some reason that isn’t grouped in with utilities

    Klee lives in a shared house with four roommates and one dog.

    Klee pays $81.50 for a monthly CharlieCard, which lets him use subway and bus lines around Boston. "I live pretty close to where I work, so I take the T," he says. He also spends between $40 to $50 on Lyft rides each month.

    Klee is still on his family's phone plan. His part of the bill comes to $40 per month.

    House cleaner: $30 (his share of the total cost)

      “Philanthropy is a key part of Klee's financial picture. Each month, he donates a significant amount, around $615, to a variety of charities, including More Than Words and GiveDirectly. The bulk of his contributions go to One Family, a non-profit located in Waltham, Massachusetts, that works to end homelessness and break the cycle of poverty for local families.”

      Wow look the gentrifier is paying remittances to the people he forced to become homeless

        More Than Words is legitimately a great organization, considering the confines of capitalism. They provide jobs for kids coming out of DYS who need to build a resume in order to get out of the street life and find a better job. They pay the kids relatively liveable wages (it was $13/hr, a couple bucks over min wage) and treat them with dignity and respect, something a lot of these kids haven't really experienced before.

        They also set up education plans to help the kids graduate high school and make plans for post-secondary education (trade or university) and provide scholarships to help offset costs.

        But this dude still sounds like a fuck.
