If I become a recreation aide at the nursing home I volunteer at...?

Well, that really depends on the cost-of-living in your particular area. If you're living in a major city -- like New York, San Francisco, or Boston, for example -- a recreation aide's salary may not get you that far unless you plan on splitting rent with someone/having a roommate, etc. However, if you're in an area with a lower cost of living, you may be able to get by. This, of course, all depends on the average salaries of the recreation aide positions in your area.
