You know, this would be good evidence to present that giving everyone access to the things Black got (an RV to stay in temporarily for free, a decent phone and plan and the rich person side of American health care), would allow people better mobility out of their situations.
Look what happened 10 months in though. Say hypothetically a poor person did all the same things Black did and kind of made it for themselves. They go in to see the doctor, they find out their dad has cancer and they have autoimmune issues. If they were to actually address their health situation at that point with only the funds they had amassed, they’d get fucked by the American Healthcare Debt Extraction system.
Not to mention all the other ways things go wrong, such as getting laid off. Without a million dollars to fallback on, many either can’t take the same risks, and many others do but that causes them to fall back to square one.

It’s also pretty obvious he cheated, though.
He clearly had a good phone, phone plan, and secure comprehensive healthcare.
Absolutely, A regular person would need no small amount of luck to get back to just employed and housed. Not saying it would be easy at all.
