I didn't finish this because I didn't feel like I was really learning anything. Ehrenreich is honest about the fact that she's privileged and that her experiment is comprised of too short a time period to really feel the strain of poverty, but as someone who's worked crappy minimum wage service jobs, I found her first couple experiments lacking. I much preferred "Evicted" as it followed along with actual people living in poverty and rather than an author who just tried it on for a month at a time.
