    64,463 for a single person in New Jersey. I’m tying to reach that goal to make that much. Right now I make about 45,000 and am using as many programs as I can (nj snap, some energy program and more) because I’m the sole income provider for my family of 4. I currently am renting a house from a friend for 1500 and he plans to sell soon. When he does I will be screwed. I can’t find rent that low. He should be renting the house I’m in for 2k a month or more. All I want to say is I’m much better off then alot of people out there and life is still a struggle.
