This would probably depend on the area the Walmart is located.

I don't doubt it. My step dad works at Walmart and makes over $15... and he said the auto shop pays more.

Found another site that said average was $20.00 and could be $5.00 lower or higher depending on the area of the country.

Carshtuff says tire technicians make $14.70 per hour in Arkansas. No clue how accurate this is.

I got tires at Walmart one time, and the kid that tried to pull it in couldn't drive stick, and they didn't replace the valve stems even though I specifically mentioned it. It was kinda funny watching him wrap it up to about 5k rpm and dump the clutch trying to get it in, or at least it would have been if it wasn't my car. At least the tires were cheap I guess.

Very frugally. A person making $15/hr qualifies for tons of welfare in many states. If you had to make a mortgage payment or high rent payment, you'd almost certainly need room mates, or to rent out a room or something. It's easier if your house is paid off.

But $15/hr isn't meant to be a living wage. It's a starting wage. Some people however have to try to live on that because they don't have and can't acquire the skills needed for better employment... or can't get better employment due to health issues.

A lot of people do it on that wage or less. It depends on where you live and if you live within your means. Living within your means seems to be a foreign concept to many people though. Also they may not decide they need a new vehicle with all the bells and whistles every 3 years like a lot of folks do.

It isn’t what you make. It is how much you spend

Never made 60K a year in my life, and I live just fine, bought my property and built my own house without taking out a loan also. Maybe you should learn how to budget.

A standard work week is 40 hours. 52 weeks per years equals 2080 work hours per year. 2080 hours per year at $18.00 per hour equals $37,440 per year. Of course not everyone works the standard 40 hours per week.
