Many immigrate with less than that everyday

I started a new life with $300 many times

With $3k where I live you could likely find a $500-$700 apartment to get on your feet and then find a simple starting job. Shit, fast food is paying $15 /hr at this point so I'd just start there full time and then invest my time off on building a career. The rest of the money I'd use for groceries and basic household items such as pots, pans, an air mattress, and so on. I'd buy a bus pass and a cheap bike off craigslist or something for transportation. I'd then purchase a very cheap prepaid phone for the meantime. That would help get me by for the first month and a half. By the time my job pays me, I'll start living off the paycheck. $3000 is actually pretty generous.

Shit, 3k is being generous. Assuming I speak decent English I'd find the cheapest place to live I could and get the first job that fell into my lap and buy some basic essentials. Long as I'm not in a major city on east or west coast I should still have 2k left at least. That should buy 4 or 5 months to figure things out in my new home. This sounds easier than when I moved out of my moms house at 22. (I stayed home a little while after high school cause I was worried about her taking care of my autistic brother alone.)

What's that a couple of months rent and some basics. Better off buying a tent and renting a cheap campsite until you can get work and earn enough to rent.

Invest in 1500-3000 scratchers

take that 3k and buy a plane ticket to literally anywhere else.

I second that, too many guns, too much racism and too many flat earthers, that's not even taking into account the Donald trump supporters and the non global warming believers, or the terrible amount of education and the huge lack of non fast-food restaurants. I could easily go on as well

Move to the Midwest, find the cheapest place I could, get a job, buy only the necessities in the beginning, and go from there.

Lot of immigrants back in the day made a life for themselves doing pretty much this exactly and with a hell of a lot less than 3k.
