Food and shelter should never be miscellaneous in a budget. If wwe can't stick to the budget, we must try harder! Get more jobs! Eat less!

Some of the figures in that budget are very low; not sure who is getting health insurance for 20/month. Food and gasoline aren't included.

/shrugsI know the public transportation infrastructure in the US sucks.

For anyone who doesn't live in a city, can't imagine not having a car. Public transport is good where I am now, but used to live in the country and cant imagine having to cycle into town when it took forty minutes to drive there. If anything on that budget seems a luxury, it cable tv and phone.
I can do upside down chocolate moo things!

And computers can't be to old either, or the bank will not see it as safe enough to do banking on. Maybe that is different in the USA, but here it is the case.

Can understand most would see phone as a necessity of life, that's true, just don't like them so that's a bias.
That makes sense. Kind of paranoid about the internet, so try to stay away from anything which involves my identity. Mostly read and whisper to the spazzes.

Mostly read and whisper to the spazzes.That makes sense too. I dreaded online banking for a long time. Five years ago I made the step. And I would not like to go back. I am not pleased at all with all kinds of organisations relying on online contact only. Here contact with unemployment agencies, sick-leaves and such are almost completely online things. Sucks, takes the human factor out of it, and it does not look to be any more effective than the old ways.
