> The social security checks do not pay the bills and you need an under the table side hustle in the bay to afford a room and be on social security checks.

I find this confusing because you seem to imply that having an income makes you ineligible for social security retirement benefits. But as long as you are 65, you're eligible without income caps. There's no requirement that you're not working.

Social security disability checks do require that you're not working. Is that what you're talking about?

In a lot of cases they are social security disability checks and the side hustles I see most frequently are table vendors or musicians
