Let’s offer benefits instead of better wages

I’ve been seen a lot of job ads trying to lure people in with company matching 401k. Here is the trick, they know they won’t have to match shit because they’re paying $17/hr (in a city with high cost of living). How much could someone reasonably put in a 401k when they’re only making $35,360 a year? The answer is 0. Don’t be fooled by this bullshit.
