How does anyone young move to an expensive city like la? Do they just have rich parents or something? Can you not live there with a basic job and finding the cheapest housing options?

id say it's mostly possible through rich parents. basically everyone ive met in nyc who doesn't work a night shift, either is a liar, has a great non-basic job, or has their parents pay for their shit.
you need to have modern survival skills, a marketable skill, and a set of friends who wouldn't let you rot in the street. maybe every part of LA is expensive by comparison, but of course there are low-end housing options in almost every city.

I mean I saw some stuff on Craigslist for 700 I don't see how that's as hard as everyone says. I mean if minimum wage is 10 an hour and you work 40 hours a week then
4(10x40) gives you 1600 a month and assuming you paid 250 or so into taxes then you'd have 1350 so 100 for transpiration 700-800 for rent 200 for food still should leave you something
shack up in a shit apartment with roommates.

So just get roommates and I'll be good with a shit job?

How about phone, Internet, car payments/insurance, gas, health insurance (which your minimum wage job won't give you), and actual spending money?

Even ghetto south central is expensive imo.
