Minimum wage in TX is $7.35 an hour. At most, Salvador Ramos might have been making close to $10 an hour at Wendy's. Maybe.

Even working full time and putting every penny toward saving up almost $2000 dollars to buy that one gun (he had two) as well as the ammo, it would take a while and show some serious desire for harm and mayhem. If he paid for the guns and ammo with his own money from a low paying job, it just shows how determined he was to kill somebody, lots of little defenseless somebodies.
Edit to add:
You were right, Roland. Ramos got a job at Wendy's specifically to save up for the guns and ammo. The Sun is not the greatest source, but I think it's accurate on this point.

It has been estimated that the teen would have spent around $4,000 on his weapons, ammunition and tactical-style vest. [snip]
"He told us he was saving up money for guns and ammo. We would ask him, Why would you spend your money on that, spend it on a car or something useful," Cruz said, adding that Ramos quit after he had saved enough.
Wow. *sigh*
