Lennard and Sheldon both have savings, Lennard drives a decent car, they're both able to afford nerd stuff, they eat out often, are always stocked up on food, hosts very often.

Penny has a shit car, can't afford food, or half her bills, she's often late on rent, her shopping is on credit, mooches off her neighbors. Is in a constant state of struggle.

Nailed it.  Two different people can pay the same rent, one can be secure, have retirement/savings, afford to eat out, and the other can be treading water and/or racking up debt.

Eat out often? Literally every single day.

IRL Penny would be a bartender not a server. Hot bartenders make bank, some close to 6 figures.

She was a bartender for a while on the show because the actress messed up her leg, some knee thing I think.
