    $300 a month for an apartment is pretty cheap, someone with a part-time job could pay for that relatively easy.

    You can live cheaper than $200/m for living expenses. I mean, especially if it's just a single school kid. Still, say it is $500, it's still barely over $120/wk which is manageable. Still, the OP did say it's not common.

    I don't think it's common because not many people can be that wealthy.

    I spend well over $400 per month on groceries and shopping, since doing that much shopping per month is a rather basic need. If I lived on $200 it would be like living off a shitton of snacks.

    or just making curry everyday like they do in the animus.

    For the 3 people living in our house it would be around 500-600 a month probably, so I would imagine it would be relatively cheaper for a single high school kid. lml.

    >they can live off rice, so that bill be like 50 bucks

    I also lived last two years of my high school away from my parents due to my school being in another city.

    I wish I could have lived on my own in high school, I think it would have been a much better experience overall. I also would have gone to fewer classes, so I guess my academics would have suffered (based on how I am now, anyway). I wish it was possible to experience things like that just to see what it's like, and to see what kind of impact it would have had on me as a person.
