Sure, $600 for a lease on a used Honda Pilot to sleep in, $400 for a monthly parking space, $400 for Charbucks coffee and muffins, and $200 for a gym membership for a place to take a shower.

IF your humble abode is paid for and your food and taxes (property tax in particular) are covered in the $1600, as is your health insurance (or Medicare), utilities, haircuts, cable, internet, cell-phone, etc.
Sure.

In SoCal? Sure. With 5 roommates. Or 10 in NoCal.

No money for gas? then why lease a running vehicle? buy a dead vehicle to sleep in and spend the $600 for hookers and booze

I think that you could buy a whole house in Detroit for a one-time payment of $1600.
