I said that they shouldn&#x27;t expect to be making tons of money for that kind of work.<p>Based on her article, she made $19,064.24 a year, or $1,588.68 a month. Is that a lot of money? Not really, but you can make it work. The key is to actually live within your means. Cut the expensive cell phone bill. Get some roommates. Stop eating out and going out for drinks all the time.

If you don&#x27;t like your current job, work to find a better one. Don&#x27;t just complain about it on the internet.
