Austin H. can’t wait to buy a house and start a family. But right now, the 34-year-old is barely getting by.
Austin is living paycheck to paycheck and saving almost no money, one of the millions of Americans struggling to make ends meet in an increasingly unaffordable economy.
Worse, the family-owned construction business he works at is shutting down.
“I am going to be unemployed in the next month or two – with no safety net,” said Austin, who declined to share his last name.
