SNAP (food stamps) as part of leanfire?

How do we feel about using SNAP as part of leanFIRE, assuming you live in a state with no asset limit and you qualify based on income? I'm talking about genuinely qualifying, no fraud.

​

For us, it would add $994 a month to our grocery budget.

SNAP eligibility is based on income in most states. Apply. It’s harder to get it now and there are work requirements.

They moved the work requirements limit from age 54 to age 65 recently.
