"A SF barista makes 18k/yr" ... where did you come up with this number? Sounds quite unrealistic...

The minimum wage in SF is currently $14/hour. Quoting a salary rate for part time work doesn’t really make sense.

Baristas who work 40 hour weeks will make (minimum) $28k, and SF provides subsidized or free health insurance on top of that.

That’s still not enough to live on, but let’s not exaggerate.
