How do people survive?

I hear it all the time, how the minimum wage isn't enough to live on, how people don't have time or energy for multiple jobs, how it's borderline impossible to live. So how are people doing it? I'm fortunate enough to currently live with family, so I don't have to worry about budgeting beyond a monthly digs payment. But I do eventually want to live on my own, so this is something I think about quite frequently. And I imagine that this is the sub that could best give me the information without bullshitting me on it or trying to be funny.
