Avid Period 4

We are both 16 years old with a child named Faith

and decided to dropout of high school in order to get everything together in order to take care of
ourselves and our child. We are also roommates with with Vanessa Perez and Isaiah Diaz
because we think that it would be easier to work together and have seperate jobs in order to raise
money faster.
The job we all decided to get was to work at Hot Topic that gave us each
26.15 dollars per hour. If we all were to work full time, we would get $4,184 each and all
together we will be making $16,736. Since we were making that amount of money we decided to
move to Chino in a house were the rent each month cost $1,298. We decided to move here
because it is 21 minutes away from our job which was in Montclair Plaza. Paying our house bill
would leave us with $15,438 and then we would have to pay for everything else like our cell
phone bill, auto insurance, diapers, toiletries, our electric bill, gas, gas for vehicles, water, trash,
and Netflix and all together it would cost $3,199 and would leave us with $12,239. The reason
why we chose to get netflix was because it’s cheaper and easier. We also didn’t need a telephone
bill because one uses house phones anymore and it will just be a waste of money.
