Spend your paycheck commuting

I find myself only able to get jobs 30+ min away from the city that only pay $15 or less. That's a max of 1,200 biweekly, after paying Philadelphias taxes and whatever county you find yourself working in's taxes, that comes down to about 800 every two weeks. Subtract around 50$ every two weeks for the commute to work and you are left with $750 every two weeks for all of your needs. One paycheck will probably pay your rent and thats it. Lots of contract jobs that pay you less than the job is actually worth.
